Knowledge Keepers are the living guardians of the Traditional Knowledge systems embedded in the cultural traditions of regional, local and indigenous communities and expressed in culture, agricultural practices, legends, folklore, rituals, songs, laws. They include herders, farmers, breeders, master cheesemakers that are connected with the traditional knowledge of a territory.
PROTECT YOUR TRADITIONAL KNOWLEDGE AND TRANSFER IT TO NEW GENERATIONS.
TELL US MORE ABOUT YOURSELF AND SHARE YOUR STORIES, PRACTICES AND PRODUCTS
Knowledge Seekers are individuals that help the Knowledge Keepers to document and transmit their knowledge to future generations through the Creative Knowledge Platform. By collecting and sharing stories, practices, traditions they expand appreciation of the Knowledge Keepers’ contribution to community resilience.
LEARN AND EXPLORE YOUR TERRITORY AND CONTRIBUTE TO THE LOCAL COMMUNITY.

We think that people and local organizations are the pillars of the community. If you believe in our mission to reinforce the role of Traditional Knowledge (TK) to maintain and preserve traditions, and use Creative Knowledge (CK) and techniques to innovate for the future and enhance the wellbeing of unique and diverse communities in a more sustainable environment and resilient economy, please volunteer with us.
We offer online training classes to give students/volunteers the chance to strengthen their skills and knowledge about unique cultural assets, and become Knowledge Seekers.
The CK F Internship Program seeks to give participants broad exposure to the realities of the different projects carried out by the foundation. Interns will have unique opportunities to interact with Knowledge Keepers, teachers, communities, local organizations, and contribute to highlight the unique assets of a territory.
