The Jarawara are an Indigenous people who inhabit the forests of the southwestern Brazilian Amazon and speak a language of the Arawá family. Historically connected to the rivers and forest, they preserve deep community ties and rich oral traditions. Their culture reflects a detailed knowledge of the forest, combining ancestral ways of life with the recent formation of Christian communities in their villages.
