The Mission
Find the lost treasures of Indigenous Knowledge
Heiðr is on a mission to raise awareness of the intrinsic value of Traditional and Indigenous Knowledge Systems (TKS/IKS), and the positive impact it is making on our quality of life.
All around the world, hearts and minds are waking up and working together in a good way. Both private and government research is confirming the practical benefits of incorporating TKS/IKS in into environmental and species conservation, health, and social sciences and practices.
The positive work happening right now, all over the globe, is amazing. Explore Heiðr's IKS content to find out where it's implemented, and the Indigenous Heroes that are leading the way.

Who's Indigenous?
Indigenous peoples are distinct groups with their own languages, beliefs, and cultures. They are also known for their strong connection to the lands and natural resources where they live, and for their desire to maintain their ancestral ways of life.
The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) acknowledges the rights of Indigenous peoples, including the right the right to self-determination, the right to their lands, and the right to practice their cultural traditions.
Indigenous Peoples are distinct social and cultural groups that share collective ancestral ties to the lands and natural resources where they live, occupy or from which they have been displaced. The land and natural resources on which they depend are inextricably linked to their identities, cultures, livelihoods, as well as their physical and spiritual well-being.
"We are all indigenous, like fingers of the same hand. Brothers and Sisters, we share this Earth. We are equally accountable for how we care for it and each other."
~Wandering Wolf, Grand Elder of the Living Maya

The Science
Like a character straight out of an Indiana Jones spin-off, National Geographic Explorer Albert Lin is on a mission to unlock the secrets of lost cities from ancient civilizations. From the remote cave systems of Oman to the forgotten fortresses of Scotland, Lin and his team traveled to some of Earth's most inaccessible and hostile environments. READ MORE

WE'RE GOING DOWN CAPTAIN!
In 1978, the radar system suddenly went out on the USS Stein. Engineers examined the fault, which likely laid somewhere around the massive (27,215-kg/59,999 lb) dome where a collossal squid had attached itself to the front of the ship’s hull.

CONVERGENT EVOLUTION IN A SQUID'S EYE
Unlike humans and other vertebrates, cephalopods’ camera eyes lack a blind spot. The blind spot in our eyes occurs at the point on the retina where the optic nerve connects. This area contains no light-detecting cells.
