Tsere: Weaving Intercultural Connection, One Story at a Time

The Tsere Project derives its name from the Shuar-Chicham word for spider.

We are a group of Ecuadorian artists who’s work focuses on keeping the «inter» in Intercultural.

We weave stories to link people together, rooted in a deep valuing and appreciation for our differences.

 

At the moment, the Tsere Project has completed 6 children’s books about and for the Amazonian children of Ecuador’s Pastaza province thanks to a Seed The Change grant from Pollination Project.

Stephanie F Scott is the author. The illustrators are: Alinne DeSouza and Lucas Rodríguez. Our artistic consultant is Francisco Galárraga. Our cultural consultants are Teresa Shiki and Freddy Tendetza.
