Who they are

The Tehuelche are one of the oldest Indigenous peoples of the plains of Patagonia, at the southern tip of South America. Historically hunters who roamed vast steppes, they maintain a deep connection to the land and the memory of their ancestors. Today, many families seek to revitalize their cultural and communal identity amid the challenges of contemporary society.
