One of the most inspiring women I know has been working on a self crafted project to document the ancient birthing traditions in some of the most remote indigenous communities in the world. She has worked with tribes from Africa to PNG and many other places besides, all self funded. The latest and most ambitious project will find her implanting herself with the women of the Nenets tribe in Siberia for 3 months as they cross the Tundra as they have for hundreds of years. She is aiming to document the traditions surrounding pregnancy and birth in one of the harshest environments on the planet.
Any help, however small, you can offer to this project will make a difference and there are some great rewards on offer if you are able to donate a bit more.
Please share this post to reach as many people as possible to help make this important project happen! Thanks!
