Who they are
The Dâw are an Indigenous people living in the upper Rio Negro region in the northwestern part of the Brazilian state of Amazonas. Traditionally forest hunters and gatherers, they belong to the Naduhup language family. Despite the historical pressures of contact and diseases that nearly wiped them out in the past, the Dâw preserve their mother tongue, rich oral narratives and deep knowledge of Amazonian ecosystems.
