Who they are
The Xetá are an Indigenous people originally from northwestern Paraná, belonging to the Tupi-Guarani language family. Following the disruptive contact that took place in the middle of the last century, the remaining families face the challenge of keeping their cultural identity and ancestral memory alive, often while living scattered apart. The people show deep resilience and seek to strengthen their community amid major changes.
