This is part of the research project "Recipes for Recovery: The Case of Tz'utujil Women in a Post-Disaster Context in Guatemala," which I led from 2023 to 2025. I will soon be sharing the digital version, while we will deliver printed versions to the Ixqii' Ajtz'utjilaa' and the team.

With a decolonial approach, I question the development demanded by modernity for the peninsular region and reinforce the alternatives proposed by local Indigenous populations and organisations for the correlated wellbeing of peoples and territories.

Aww thank you for sharing! ✨

Thank you, Sharon. That's very kind of you. (And what can I say, it feels hopeless indeed!)

(and visit me for a few days! 💜)
