One of the most innovative storytelling projects of our era, the Out of Eden Walk journey began in 2013 in the Rift Valley of Ethiopia, a cradle of our species, and will conclude in 2027 at the tip of South America—the final horizon reached 7,000 years ago by our common ancestors. Led by Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Paul Salopek, the project celebrates the work of local creatives along its route, and has built an enduring philanthropic legacy that combines meaningful people-to-people storytelling, civic literacy and education programming.
