FACES Project

Native Planet is a non-governmental organization (NGO) dedicated to the self-empowerment of indigenous peoples and the preservation of world ethnic cultures.

Traditional groups are not only global role models for successful conservation and sustainable consumption of natural resources; they are also the guardians of our planet's remaining wilderness and biological diversity. Helping these groups speak for themselves to a global audience is crucial to their protection and Native Planet's documentation of indigenous lifestyles gives traditional people a voice the world can hear. The accounts and photographs of our experiences will introduce you to world cultures struggling to retain their ancient ways in the face of economic modernization and globalization.
