Abstract: 
The experiences of human life become an important foundation in managing their lives. The experiences that have been chosen become a reference for humans in their actions and eventually become the culture of a society. This culture has been passed down from generation to generation orally. Therefore, along with the changing times and the inclusion of development programs, an appropriate method is needed to describe life and society. The writers choose a cultural ecological approach to describe the NEBES village community in Kokoda District, South Sorong Regency. The residents of Nebes village are known to have adapted to the environment where they live. It is a good picture of a society that lives depending on nature and maintains relationships with the people who live side by side with them. Rewriting the way people think and act is a good way to remind us that life and the values ​​contained therein are what keep us alive.
