The concept of Nativiti Cultural Foundation (NaCuF) was born from a fervent passion for exploring nature, revitalizing our fading cultural heritage, and uncovering the essence of our identity.
WE EXPLORED
Our journey led us to live among diverse communities across various Nigerian states such as Enugu, Ebonyi, Ogun, Lagos, Nasarawa, Akwa Ibom, Abuja, Kaduna, Cross River and more. For several years, we immersed ourselves in their ways of life, seeking to understand the nuances that make each tribe unique.
WE ENGAGED
Participation became our guide. We engaged in numerous activities—from farming and cooking to handcrafts and cultural celebrations. Exploring historical and archaeological sites deepened our comprehension of these communities. Through interviews and interactions, we sought to grasp their essence.
WE RECOGNIZED THE NEED
Recognizing the importance of preserving our cultural heritage, we aim to raise awareness about our shared past. Through self-discovery and promoting healthy coexistence, we celebrate the beauty and uniqueness of every tribe, acknowledging that we are not different, but rather special in diverse ways.
We want to keep our culture and tradition
from going extinct
Our Mission
Our mission revolves around fostering traditional development in rural areas. We aim to empower individuals by offering them the opportunity to explore their immediate environment and Nigerian culture, enlightening them on its relevance to their existence.
Our Vision
Our Vision is to revive lost cultures and traditions while highlighting the benefits of embracing cultural practices.
We intend to achieve this goal by organizing various events, seminars, exhibitions, and workshops focused on education. Through our Nativiti Culture Projects, we actively encourage participation in these events, fostering opportunities for personal development.
