WisdomKeepers.tv

Indigenous Voices of Sustainability, WisdomKeepers.tv is being launched in 2016 as a sister site and gateway to EarthSayers.tv, Voices of Sustainability, a specialized search engine to all curated, video content. Our objective is to help communicate the Indigenous Elders’ call for a change in consciousness, a move from head to heart guided by the Laws of Nature, a weave of nature with humankind. Additionally we work so our wisdomkeepers are found in top search results, consistently and frequently, using a blended taxonomy of Indigenous and sustainability-related search terms to increase “findability” and engagement. Given the intense commercialization of the Web it's easy to loose sight of its educational, spiritual and consciousness raising value in changing behavior and attitudes, especially with the advent of online video favoring as it does the oral tradition, storytelling, and ceremonies. Now is the time to use it more effectively on behalf of the Elders and for our citizens by blending, as but one example, Indigenous and Western Science, especially climate science as an important element of the connectedness that must occur in this time of global warming. We invite you to visit www.earthsayers.tv, voices of sustainability as background to our proposal. Use EarthSayers.tv to see for yourself the value of curation to deliver organized, relevant and quality content; to experience the power of online video to educate and motivate; and to learn and appreciate the number and breadth of voices ready to be discovered and heard. WisdomKeepers.tv may be viewed as a sister site to EarthSayers.tv, one system with different “skins” and shared content. Customizing rather than starting from scratch enables our team to launch WisdomKeepers.tv affordably and in a relatively short period of time, while reducing risk on what is to be delivered in terms of look, feel, and content. The EarthSayers’ special collection of WisdomKeepers is an excellent starting point especially the video, Use of the Term Sustainability featuring Ilarion Merculieff (Aleut) for it’s Ilarion who inspires and guides us on this project.
