The
Khoisanpeoples.org Web site is a partnership of human rights
organizations and groups around the world who support the rights
of the first peoples of Southern Africa. Below is a list of some
of the organizations who have joined us in our work. This Web site
is maintained by
ECOTERRA
Intl., who accompanies and stood besides the !Kung and other
bushmen in their struggle since the 90's. If your organization
would like to participate in this venture, please
contact us.
SAVE THE KALAHARI SAN (SAVESAN) was approved by the IRS as a
501-C-3 non-profit organization in October 1993. This was a follow
up of a visit to the Kalahari in 1988, and the publishing of the
book `BUSH FOR THE BUSHMAN'. The purpose of the organization is to
urgently inform the public of the dire situation facing the San
(to scientists) or Bushmen (to laymen) or `The Gods Must Be Crazy'
people (to movie goers). But more importantly SAVESAN wants to
harness to the cause people to be interested and aggressively do
something about turning around the environmental destruction of
the fragile Kalahari ecosystem. This is the same environment that
the San (or Bushmen) rely upon for their livelihood. When we lose
the Bushman we lose their culture too.
