For two weeks, I have been living in Ricaurte, in the southwestern province
of NariƱo. My teammate and I came to accompany an indigenous
organization, CAMAWARI (Council of Elders of the Awa of Ricaurte)--Ricaurte
being an expansive municipality that includes eleven Awa reservations.
Ricaurte is also the name of the town that serves as "head" of the
municipality, and this town is home for six weeks to our two-person CPT
mobile team.
