Help Us Build the Shipibo Shamanic Institute

A Home for Tradition. A Path for the Future. A Bridge Between Worlds.

Following the success of our last project, where, thanks to your generous support, we brought clean water to the remote village of Santa Rosa de Dinamarca by building a water station, we are now taking the next vital step.

We are establishing a non-profit association in Peru with one clear mission:

To create a living sanctuary where the Shipibo-Konibo tradition can thrive, evolve, and be shared with the world.

Why We're Doing This

The world is in desperate need of deep reconnection, with nature, with spirit, and with ancestral wisdom. The Shipibo-Konibo people of the Peruvian Amazon have held sacred knowledge of plant medicines, healing songs (icaros), and a profound cosmology for generations. But with modern pressures, much of this tradition is at risk of being lost.

Our vision is to create a Shamanic Institute — a dedicated space where:

Young Shipibo apprentices (future Onányas) can come live, study, and diet under the guidance of experienced Shipibo healers, preserving their lineage in an authentic, rooted, and safe environment.

Westerners can come to respectfully engage in sacred plant dietas, immerse themselves in Shipibo culture, and learn directly from indigenous wisdom-keepers, side by side with local students.

️ A sacred center can flourish, built on land we will acquire and protect, designed as a space of healing, cultural continuity, and mutual respect.

️ What Your Donations Will Support

Purchase of land in the Ucayali region, to serve as the physical and energetic foundation of the center

Construction of eco-responsible spaces for living, studying, and ceremony

Sponsorship of young Shipibo apprentices, ensuring free access to training and dietas

Development of intercultural programs, making this wisdom accessible and respected globally

Why It Matters

This is not just about a building.

This is about preserving a lineage, empowering a community, and creating a bridge between indigenous and modern worlds.

By supporting this project, you’re helping:

Keep Shipibo healing arts alive for future generations

Create educational and spiritual access for Western seekers in a respectful way

Strengthen a movement of cultural regeneration and environmental respect

Where We've Been — and Where We’re Going

We’ve already completed a major milestone: building a clean water station in Santa Rosa de Dinamarca and clothes for kids in the village. That success showed us what's possible when people like you come together with purpose.

Now, we ask for your support again, to give roots to the next phase of this sacred work.

Together, let’s create a place where tradition lives, plants teach, and the future of Shipibo medicine flourishes.
