Who they are
The West Berawan are an indigenous community living in the forests and river basins of the state of Sarawak on the island of Borneo. Traditionally organized in longhouses, they depend on subsistence agriculture and fishing in local rivers. They preserve their own language and maintain customs deeply connected to ancestral heritage and the cycles of nature.
