Who they are
The Sula inhabit the Sula Islands archipelago, in the province of North Maluku, Indonesia. Strongly tied to the marine environment and local forests, they sustain their livelihoods primarily through fishing, sago gathering, and subsistence farming. The community preserves a cohesive cultural identity, in which the mother tongue and Islamic practices shape daily rhythms and communal bonds.
