Ninawa Pai da Mata, chief of Novo Futuro village deep in the Brazilian Amazon, located five days by boat from Tarauacá in Acre, is widely respected as one of the region’s most charismatic and influential Indigenous leaders.
In this course, Ninawa shares profound wisdom about the sacred medicine Hapéh, a traditional blend of tobacco and tree ashes used by Amazonian peoples.
