Who they are
The Shifir are an indigenous community living on the slopes and valleys of the Nuba Mountains in Sudan. Integrated into the Karko linguistic group, they preserve ancestral agricultural customs in a region marked by great ethnic diversity and geographic isolation. Their community identity is strongly linked to the land and to Islam, which shapes their daily traditions and practices.
