INDIGENOUS RESEARCHERS

Delegation of the Tacana and Tsimane, Bolivia

Tacana and Tsimane Indigenous researchers from Bolivia visited the Weltkulturen Museum. As part of the project ‘Heritage and Territoriality: Past, Present and Future Perceptions of the Tacana, T'simane and Waiwai’ at the University of Bonn, they intensively analysed works from the collection, which were collected in Bolivia in 1952 by the anthropologist Karin Hahn-Hissink. 

Dr Mona Suhrbier, Custodian for the Americas and Acting Director, accompanied the visit. Former curator Prof Dr Mark Münzel was also a guest.
