Who they are
The Digao are a community that inhabits the rural and mountainous areas of southwestern China, forming part of the vast tapestry of Tibeto-Burman speaking peoples. Historically tied to farming and village life, they preserve a cultural identity marked by distinct customs, traditional songs, and a profound relationship with the natural environment and the memory of their ancestors.
