Who they are
The Jamamadi are an Indigenous people who inhabit the forests and river basins of the southwestern Brazilian Amazon. Speaking a language of the Arawá family, they preserve a deep knowledge of the forests and rivers where they live, maintaining community traditions passed down through generations. Today, they navigate the preservation of their ancestral identity and the challenges of contact with the wider society.
