The Toromona are one several Indigenous Peoples in South America who live in voluntary isolation, which means they do not interact with the ‘outside’ world.
A Norwegian biologist, Lars Hafskjold, once undertook an exhaustive search for the Toromona.
He disappeared in 1997.
Indigenous Peoples are putting their bodies on the line and it's our responsibility to make sure you know why. That takes time, expertise and resources - and we're up against a constant tide of misinformation and distorted coverage. By supporting IC you're empowering the kind of journalism we need, at the moment we need it most.
