FEATURED ARTICLES


THE ARTIST WOMEN OF THE WIXARIKA OR HUICHOL PEOPLE OF MEXICO

The Huichol or Wixárika people are one of the 68 original populations that make
up the multicultural nation called Mexico. Various foreign and Mexican
researchers have considered the Huichol or Wixaritári an artist society. At the
beginning they made ritual and utilitarian objects of great plastic beauty,
which during the last 70 years have not ceased to have these functions. However,
currently they have also undergone a commercialization process.


WHY LAND AND ECOLOGY MATTER FOR GLOBAL PSYCHEDELICS

The 18th through the 20th centuries easily mark one of the most significant
periods in human and environmental history, as Western European imperial
expansion and settler colonialism incentivized the study and the incorporation
of the botanical wonders found in what often came to be labeled as ‘the
tropics.’


NEWSLETTER "MEETING OF THE ALLIANCE FOR THE REGENERATION OF THE
ALTIPLANO-WIRIKUTA"

From July 12th through July 14th, 2023, a third face-to-face meeting was held in
the Las Margaritas ejido with the participation of various organizations and
with the purpose of promoting the ecological, economic, and social well-being of
the Altiplano Potosi, also known as Wirikuta to the Wixárika people. The
Wixárika Research Center oversaw general coordination, that included invitations
to Wixárika communities and inhabitants of the Altiplano region, as well as some
delegates Sonora and Jalisco who were invited to participate to share their
environmental work.  


WIXARIKA SCHOLARSHIP FUND FALL/WINTER NEWSLETTER 2023

This year is quickly drawing to a close and we are happy to share some great
news with you all in the hopes that this can lift your spirits and inspire you
to continue to support Wixarika undergraduate students. This newsletter is long
overdue in part because the Wixarika Research Center has had its hands full
launching a new website and online archive. Our new site includes an updated
special page dedicated to the Wixarika Scholarship Fund (formerly HSF or Huichol
Scholarship Fund), which will include both student profiles and our yearly
online application process.


WIXÁRIKA COMMUNITY RECOVERS 25% OF ANCESTRAL LANDS IN NAYARIT

The Indigenous Wixárika community of San Sebastián Teponahuxtlán in Nayarit has
recovered 2,585 hectares of its ancestral lands – a quarter of the territory it
has been struggling to reclaim for nearly 70 years. The transfer took place
peacefully after the Presidential Commission for land restitution assembled to
address the dispute negotiated compensation with 13 property owners to return
the land to its ancestral inhabitants.


WATER AND POWER IN WIRIKUTA

When it rains in the high plateaus of San Luis Potosí, Mexico, the dampened
earth releases a scent that showcases its unique biodiversity. During the rainy
season, greasewood bushes, mesquites, yucca and a wide variety of cacti flower
and give their fruits, while the locals plant their cornfields that grow
according to the nourishment they receive from the seasonal rainfall.

we recognize the world."
