A new balance for humanity

Today, the entire planet is impacted by profound changes of climatic origin leading to conflicts and numerous environmental disasters.

Bearers of Indigenous cultures from North, Central and South America have been walking this land for so many years that they know it's time to come together in the joy of sharing and in the spirit of reconciliation so that the world finds a new balance.

Assignment

The mission of this summit is up to the challenge that awaits us: to unite us. Indeed, this meeting of all the elders of the North, the Center and the South carries a vision, that of unifying the peoples of all nations so that they speak with one voice. This consistency is a strong message sent to the world for our common future.

Mission

Vision

This vision was carried by Grandfather William Commanda, elder of the Algonquin people, spiritual leader and great promoter of environmental stewardship. but also made an Officer of the Order of Canada.

It was said in particular that the day when the condor of the South would meet the Eagle of the North, a great era of peace could be born.

In these troubled times where conflicts and environmental disasters are on the increase, the bearers of culture from the North, the Center and the South know that it is time to come together.
