In this conversation, Roseane Cadete will contextualize Wapichana territorial issues and the expropriation and patenting of Indigenous knowledge by the European health industry. Exploring the dichotomy between healing and harm, Tipik and Kunani, traditional health practices are directly linked to Indigenous education: that which we learn in our traditional houses from paunary relatives. This encounter will be a sharing opportunity to heed these calls from Tipik and Kunani.
