Native Planet

http://www.nativeplanet.org/

Native Planet is a non-governmental organization (NGO) dedicated to the self-empowerment of indigenous peoples and the preservation of world ethnic cultures since indigenous cultures of the world are slowly disappearing.  Against this background, Native Planet strives to protect these cultures, their ways of life and their ancestral homelands from modern infringements.  Through this website entrenched with numerous pictures and cultural documentaries, Native Planet intends to raise global awareness of all traditional cultures as well as the challenges they are facing through the creation of a comprehensive database that stores information on indigenous cultures.

This website is an excellent resource.  It provides comprehensive information on the ancient cultures of Natives and highlights why the preservation of Indigenous traditions is relevant in this globalised world.
