Thursday, 10 April, 2025
Born in the Colombian Amazon, Juan Carlos Galeano bridges poetry, academia, and environmental activism with rare authenticity. His work, including "Folktales of the Amazon" and poetry inspired by Amazonian cosmogonies, reveals the intricate relationships between Indigenous, mestizo, and Afro-descendant communities and the forests, rivers, and beings they share their lives with.At Florida State University, Galeano teaches Latin American poetry while directing "Journey into Amazonia," a field program in the Peruvian Amazon where students engage directly with local communities and environments rather than just studying them from afar.We caught up with Juan Carlos at the FOLIO Festival in Óbidos, Portugal, where his book "Amazonia" has just been translated into Portuguese, further extending the reach of these essential Amazonian perspectives..Official website for FOLIO - Obidos International literary Festival: https://foliofestival.com/.Learn more about Juan Carlos Galeano’s work: https://myweb.fsu.edu/jgaleano/.WATCH a video version of this interview or READ transcripts in English and Portuguese here: https://azimuthworldfoundation.org/insights/entry/stories/jcgaleano.html .AZIMUTH WORLD FOUNDATION - JOIN THE CONVERSATION:- WEBSITE: https://www.azimuthworldfoundation.org- INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/azimuthworldfoundation- THREADS: https://www.threads.net/@azimuthworldfoundation- FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/azimuthworldfoundation- LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/company/azimuth-world-foundation/
