At Kukulmat we work to promote education in indigenous communities and reconnect with our roots through the collective identity of indigenous peoples.

Our history

Education + Culture + Technology

Kukulmat is a project that was born in 2017 in the Highlands of Chiapas , with the purpose of empowering children from indigenous communities to break the cycle of inequality of opportunities through education and reconnection with their roots .

We seek to preserve and revitalize the ancestral traditions and knowledge of indigenous cultures using new technologies.

Our pillars

Roots

We rescue ancient Mayan knowledge, reconnecting new generations with their history and strengthening their cultural identity.

Education

Learning math through the Mayan numeral system is fun and meaningful. We believe education is a powerful tool for change and empowerment.

Culture

We preserve and share the indigenous legacy through play, ensuring that traditions and knowledge remain alive for future generations.

Technology

We bring virtual reality and digital tools to marginalized communities, blending the past with the future to create new opportunities.
