About the event
Women's Circle with Cacao special guest : Laura Yawanawa.
In the Women's Circle we establish a space that nurtures vulnerability and reflection, recognizing our inherent sensitivity. Together, we participate in a ritual ceremony with cacao, inspired by ancient Mayan wisdom. As women we interweaves our experiences into a collective tapestry of collective experience. Guided by Ofrenda Co-Founder, America Maldonado.
In this unique ceremony, environmental activist Laura Yawanawa will join us. She is an entrepreneur and an advocate for Indigenous People's Rights and Women's Rights from Acre, Brazil. Laura's work is extensive, transformative, and vital for the survival of the Yawanawá people. She has witnessed the devastating effects of climate change and deforestation firsthand and staunchly advocates for environmental protection. Laura advocates for women’s rights and gender equality in Indigenous communities, cementing her legacy as a truly empowering leader within her community and beyond.
