16 January 2025
12h15
Geneva Boulevard Carl-VOGT 65, 1205 Genève -
Meet with author, Claire-Lise Jeanneret, during this lunchtime event at the museum. Extermination, exploitation, discrimination, acculturation... The Mayoruna (or Matses) of Javari share this fate reserved for the indigenous peoples of Amazonia. Her story bears witness to the Mayoruna's capacity for resistance. It is a tribute to this struggling people, and a highly critical reflection of our relationship with nature and with others. Click here for more information.
