The project “Waterside Wisdom” documents and revitalizes the amphibious ways of life of Zenú, Afro-descendant, and peasant communities in Colombia’s Momposina Depression. It addresses non-economic losses such as cultural uprooting, erosion of traditional knowledge, and weakening of community identity due to climate impacts and displacement. Through Participatory Action Research, local leaders will co-create an audiovisual documentary that safeguards and amplifies ancestral water-based practices as a model for climate adaptation. In the long term, it seeks institutional recognition of this biocultural heritage as a cornerstone of sustainable, community-driven development.
