Hunter-Gatherer

The Baka people, often referred to as Pygmies, maintain a traditional semi-nomadic hunter-gatherer lifestyle deeply intertwined with the rainforest. Their rich cultural heritage includes unique musical traditions and extensive knowledge of forest plants and animals, passed down through generations.

Groups like the Baka, Bagyeli, and Bakola, among others, continue to live a semi-nomadic hunter-gatherer existence, relying on the forest for sustenance and cultural practices. However, they face increasing challenges from deforestation and modernization.
