Cultural Enrichment Worksheets

This work originated as part of an agroecology research project conducted in Bolivia, to which I contributed by collecting anthropological data for my master’s thesis. Originally, the cultural revitalization fact sheets described the agroecological practices of indigenous peoples—that is, practices based on the use of local resources and natural ecological processes.

The book examines the agroecological practices of two communities, Bia Recuaté and Tres Islas, which belong to the Yuqui and Yurakaré peoples, respectively. Each chapter takes the form of a cultural revitalization fact sheet, which inspired the book’s title. These fact sheets are not intended solely to raise awareness of and legitimize these practices within Bolivian society; they are also aimed at the communities themselves, with the goal of sparking renewed interest in their agroecological heritage and encouraging the transmission—and even the revitalization—of this knowledge and these practices.

The book is primarily aimed at Indigenous youth. To that end, it takes the form of a comic book featuring three children who accompany elders from their community to learn about traditional subsistence practices in the region (hunting, fishing, and crafts). The community depicted is unnamed and not associated with any specific ethnic group, so that everyone can identify with it.

In addition, the book includes knowledge about flora and fauna that draws on indigenous traditions to inform Bolivian society. It also offers scientific content (or “modern” knowledge) intended for Indigenous peoples with limited access to documentary resources. The goal is for this book to serve as a bridge between different forms of knowledge and to explore the connections between them.

An educational comic about the importance of eating locally

The goal of this project was to spark curiosity about the diversity of regional products, focusing on an incentive-based approach rather than a moralizing one. This work was carried out as part of the EDAA training program in 2023 and was later revised in 2026.
