Native Planet is a non-governmental organization (NGO) dedicated to the empowerment of indigenous peoples and preservation of world ethnic cultures. These traditional groups are global role models for successful conservation and sustainable consumption of natural resources, as well as being guardians of our planet’s remaining wilderness. The preservation of this Planet’s rapidly decreasing biological diversity begins with the protection of the remaining indigenous cultures.

Native Planet’s documentation of indigenous lifestyles gives them a voice the world can hear. Our powerful and compelling images will carry you to exotic places where you can discover the unimaginable variety and richness of traditional cultures. Intimate accounts of our experiences with people rather than “cultures” will personally introduce you to fascinating individuals who still live in the old ways. And then experience Native Planet’s cultural ecotours first-hand.

Delight in our photos, enjoy the fascinating stories, take pleasure in Native Planet’s unique journeys and see how our proactive education and humanitarian aid projects are helping threatened cultures fight back. Then make your own Planetary difference by joining us in assisting these cultures--there are so many ways you can help…
