Symposiums, conferences and lectures on the philosophy of the nomadic world.

About the project

Heritage. Authentic sports and traditions. Careful work with meaning, explained to the world without simplification.

Unity. An open international space where cultures are equal and participants are respected.

Respect. Dignity in presentation, cultural correctness and responsibility in handling symbols.

Dignity — confident, without pathos and without souvenir gloss.
