| Title: | Brazil - Rural Sustainable Development Project in the Semi-arid Region of Bahia (Pro-Semiárido) April 2016 |
| Description: |
Josê Valdo Jesus dos Santos, of the indigenous Kiriri tribe,holds green beans and a necklace made from seeds, at his home in Aldeia Segredo Velho, near Ribeira do Pombal, in the state of Bahia, Brazil, on Wednesday, April 13, 2016. After years of fighting for their rights, the Kiriri indigenous people took back their land in 1995. This was a very important milestone in their long-term struggle for keeping themselves together as a people with a different cultural identity, with their own ancestral knowledge and traditions. The IFAD-funded Rural Sustainable Development Project in the Semi-arid Region of Bahia (Pro-Semiárido) has been working together with the Kiriri people to allow them to use their traditional knowledge and traditions as a foundation upon which to build their livelihoods. |
