With its projects, the Jimmy Nelson Foundation is completing the circle Jimmy has started with his art.

Besides raising awareness about Indigenous cultures, Jimmy has accumulated endless photo-, video- and research material which through the foundation are translated into a free education program called Cult-ED.

With Cult-ED, children can travel digitally to faraway places, from Siberia and Mongolia to Peru and French Polynesia, to learn about unique cultures and traditions. Cult-ED inspires a younger generation to be more aware of the importance of human diversity and Indigenous knowledge on how to live in harmony with the nature around us.

Additionally, the JNF supports the communities in preserving their cultural heritage for the future with its reciprocity projects, which are tailor-made programs initiated and run by the communities themselves to fit their needs.
