Where they work?

I get this question a lot, "How do the indigenous support themselves?" The answer depends on their location, but simply put, anyway they can. Many that live close to cities beg, some work in trash dumps, some have crops and others do whatever is available at the time.

This is a yerba field that has been stripped of it's leaves. Indigenous will do part time work like this.


Here is a community that lives beside this dump and pulls out things to recycle.


Here is a group that is drying corn and preparing a field to plant.

This group makes charcoal and sales it.
