Friends of Peoples Close to Nature
Friends of Peoples Close to Nature (fPcN) is a non-governmental human rights organization that works in the field of indigenous rights. The organization is dedicated to the survival of tribal peoples, in particular hunter-gatherers.〔(friends of Peoples close to Nature website - Our Ethos and statement of principles )〕 They believe that these people are "the first and the last societies on Earth to have a non-exploitative relationship with the natural world", and they define their task as an organization in helping them to "preserve their unique cultures from enforced assimilation, the ideologies of 'progress' and 'growth' and absorption in the global economy". The organization was founded in Germany, with several partner organizations having since then been established in different countries. The campaigns are carried out on a global level, giving support to tribes that go from East Africa to the Amazon to the Philippines. fPcN considers that, unlike other organizations working in this field, they oppose the pushing of any Western values and practices on indigenous cultures.
==Mission==
fPcN sees the afflictions of indigenous tribes lying in the imposition of alien interests and not in a deficiency of their way of living.〔〔(German Information Centre New Delhi, German NGOs - making a difference )〕 They consider that the real struggle for these remote peoples is not in seeking equal opportunities for them in our own world, but in recognizing their autonomy and right to live in the way that they choose. Furthermore, they recognize the threat as a part of a culture of violence and standardization of the industrialized societies. fPcN considers these tribes as representing a successful way to live in a sustainable fashion, and see the lack of respect from states and economic entities as stemming from their very own distancing from nature in modern society. fPcN's mission is not in the field of reforming the poorer of those who live or have been assimilated by that system, but to assist those threatened by it in living their non-hierarchical ways in harmony with their environment. fPcN believes that the best we can do to help these peoples and respect their will is to let them be.
