Shor people

Shor people are members of a small, semi-nomadic ethnic group indigenous to the Democratic Republic of Congo’s northeastern region. They inhabit forested areas and have traditionally relied on hunting, fishing, and small-scale agriculture for sustenance. The community is known for its distinct language, cultural practices, and social structures that emphasize close community ties. Despite modern pressures, Shor people work to preserve their traditions and way of life, balancing adaptation to contemporary influences with their cultural identity.
