Maps

We developed a community mapping process together with the native communities of San Jerónimo and Shankivironi in Peru. These maps, created by the community members themselves, captured their knowledge of the territory and were designed as tools to strengthen communal management and demarcation. The maps produced are both territorial and social-cultural, as they incorporate elements of daily life, historical memories and the relationships that shape the community space. The final versions were handed over to both communities with the aim of supporting their local projects related to the “defence” of their territory.
