Ancestral Stewardship
Ancestral Heart’s indigenous led biocultural preservation initiative for Iboga

Patricia Eastman
We received a special match for a project dear to my heart, Biocultural preservation of Bwiti and sustainable cultivation of Iboga for future generations. It’s a $150,000 match. Any funds up to $150,000 will be fully matched to initiate a council of Bwiti elders, shaping the future of preservation of equatorial Africa. Gabon is one of the countries that has signed the United Nations Nagoya Protocol protecting the biocultural of Bwiti and Iboga. This is an incredible case study in the future of indigenous led biocultural preservation. And come see me before the end of the crossing for a special gift.
