In this episode of our More than Human webinar series, Juana Vera Delgado tells us about the rediscovery of her water-based identity made during her PhD journey. As a descendant of the Wari culture, she could understand why water was and is seen as a feminine creator divinity of Life on the earth. This belief to see water as a living entity persists in many communities, especially in the Andes and the Amazon, and forms the basis of the political, social and religious resistance to colonial imposition.
