Over recent years, we have collectively grown into an “anti” society. Positive outlooks and movements are becoming increasingly rare to come by, says Ivan Sawyer García, but why can’t we all be more pro-earth? Shouldn’t we be fighting for things, rather than against them?

In episode 26 of We Walk The Earth, Sergio sits down with Ivan Sawyer García; a cultural entrepreneur, indigenous rights activist, and media producer who has dedicated over a decade of his life to cultural exchange, sustainability, and preservation of indigenous knowledge across North and South America. 

Through photography, social media campaigns, events, and documentaries, Ivan has been sharing the stories of indigenous communities, inspiring others to immerse themselves into their culture to help protect and support our planet and life on Earth.

Ivan is also the founder and director of Voices of Amerikua, a collaborative media laboratory that empowers indigenous voices across North, Central, and South America to protect their culture, land, and rights. Describing himself as a restless person, always seeking ways to create space for change across communities and space, he hopes to help bridge the gap between the North and South Americas.
