Dear Friend,
After an incredible year of hard work and deep impact, we are excited to share with you Cultural Survival’s 2023 Annual Report! ([link removed])
Since its inception in 1972, Cultural Survival has supported thousands of Indigenous communities through joint advocacy campaigns, capacity building, youth fellowships, research, direct grants, publications, and more.
In 2023, we celebrated our 51st year and Cultural Survival accomplished more than even we thought possible as we continued to support grassroots Indigenous solutions to protect, respect, and fulfill the rights of Indigenous Peoples. During the second year of implementation of our 2022-2026 Strategic Framework, we honed in on the four prongs of our strategy: Advocacy, Capacity Building, Grantmaking, and Communications, along with our primary themes, Land and Livelihoods, Cultures and Languages, Climate Change Solutions, Indigenous Community Media, and the cross-cutting theme of Women and Youth. We have built our organizational capacity by making 10 new staff hires during the year, filling in operational gaps, and broadening our reach.
This report ([link removed]) highlights the various levels of impact Cultural Survival is making around the globe and exemplifies our commitment to creating a future that respects and honors Indigenous Peoples' inherent rights and dynamic cultures, deeply and richly interwoven in lands, languages, spiritual traditions, and artistic expression, rooted in self-determination and self-governance.
Thanks to our funders and supporters like you, in 2023 we accomplished the following:
* The Indigenous Community Media Fund supported 60 community media projects in 20 countries totaling $420,000
* Awarded 49 Youth Fellowships supporting 129 Indigenous youth in 18 countries
* Trained 28 Indigenous women in radio production and journalism
* Supported 72 Keepers of the Earth Fund projects in 21 countries totaling $543,605
* Released 472 Indigenous Rights Radio programs in 40 languages
* Submitted 6 reports to UN Treaty Bodies on human rights issues
* Provided urgent funding for 7 Indigenous rights defenders in need of support
* Generated close to $225,000 for 30 Indigenous artists and cooperatives at the Cultural Survival Bazaar
We are extremely thankful for both our new supporters and long-time donor partners and your ongoing dedication and commitment to upholding Indigenous rights. It is through your financial support and generous donations that make this work possible.
Donate generously ([link removed]) to help us continue this crucial work. Thank you!
In solidarity and gratitude,
Cultural Survival Board and Staff
Support Indigenous-led solutions and leadership! ([link removed])
