Who they are

The Dampelas live on the northwest coast of Sulawesi Island in Indonesia, between mountains and the sea. They belong to the larger group of Malay peoples of the archipelago and maintain their own language, Dampelas, as a mark of identity. Fishing and farming shape the daily life of this indigenous community, which has been rooted in the same region for generations.
