Uywanakuy (mutually upraising) Yaku (Water) Mama (Mother) is a journey into deeper relationship with our watersheds, communities, and the streams of memory that show us how to care for and celebrate life.
In this co-creative gathering and participatory container, we will apply land-based skills and tools for regenerating soils and ecoystems as we grow in our relationship to place, culture, and each other.
We will collaborate with Andean-Amazonian lineage keepers in inviting the recuperation of ancestral seeds of knowledge and art: place-based stewardship, stories, songs and dances, resilient food ways, pilgrimage, medicine, and more. We will engage in cultural cross-pollination and dialogue on multiple scales, offering space for local and bioregional alliances to form through this collaborative effort for the mutual upraising of life-sustaining systems and waterways.
As people of place, we aim to facilitate more connective, rooted and resilient individuals, communities, and watersheds. This is co-creation for the sake of world renewal, peacemaking, and the seventh generation coming. This is practice for cross-cultural pollination, diplomacy, and community organizing. This is art for the sake of joyful hearts, healthy minds, and working hands ⎯ for living soil and fresh clean water!
