ANCIENT WISDOM IN MODERN SOCIETY
A unique and exclusive photo book, created by Alice Braat in collaboration with the oldest culture alive on our planet, the San Bushman people in Namibia. 264 Pages of stunning content to inspire the world with stories and knowledge from a culture with an unwritten history.
This extraordinary awarded photo book is more than just a collection of images—it’s a rare and intimate glimpse into the lives, traditions, and resilience of the San Bushman people, the world’s oldest culture alive on our planet. It’s a tribute, a call to action, and a chance to connect with the roots of humanity.
'ANCIENT Wisdom in Modern Society' is not for sale, but will be given to you as a token of appreciation for your donation to the San Eco-Village project.
INTERNATIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY AWARDS
I'm thrilled to announce that 'ANCIENT Wisdom in Modern Society' has been awarded at the prestigious International Photography Awards in New York as a 3rd prize winner in the Book/People category .
We hope this recognition will help us amplify the voices of the San people, and raise global awareness for their invaluable wisdom in today’s modern society.
" After working together as a photographer with the San for thirteen years, we felt that we could strengthen each other in the San Eco-Village project at Harnas."

BEHIND THE SCENES
Creating this book together was not just a project — it was an extraordinary journey of mutual learning. Lessons about resilience, humility, and a way of being deeply connected that I had never truly understood before.
