Experiencing Interruptions?

A Message From The Kogi Tribe of the Don Diego River Basin

Take a glimpse into The Kogi, an ancient Colombian civilisation that might just hold the answer to the climate crisis happening across the world right now.

The Kogi have an important understanding of environmental management. Having studied the planet for hundreds of years, they can teach us how to take action and protect the planet that we all share.

With an original soundtrack by Musician and Activist, Nick Mulvey, Deadbeat Films are working together with The Kogi, Jaguar Siembra and WaterBear towards a vital impact campaign. In order to preserve the Sierra, The Kogi needs to buy back their land which was stolen from them and recover the balance of the ecosystem.

Returning lands and giving title to Indigenous people is the first step to reversing climate change.

Let’s take action. Donate funds to buy back their land.

Our climate crisis is a spiritual crisis.
