Saphichay is an Indigenous founded and led grassroots organization from the central Andes of Peru. Through their work they support the conservation and revitalization of Indigenous rights, knowledge and practices. Talpunanchicñam is an educational program that strives to strengthen cultural identity, native language and food sovereignty in Pre-K and primary school students. It has made an effort to become increasingly comprehensive, incorporating traditional knowledge, native food sovereignty and native language revitalization in all classes. This means these aspects are woven into all academic spaces.

They work within schools as well as with after school programs. The goal is to have the children exposed to an education which will re-enforce pride and knowledge of ones’ own Indigenous identity and culture. The school and community gardens are used as a tool for exploring and re-enforcing the importance of growing and eating native seeds and foods.
