Cultural Survival is excited to announce our 2025 cohort of Indigenous Youth Fellows as part of our Capacity Building Program. Our Indigenous Youth Fellowship supports young Indigenous leaders aged 18-28 who are dedicated to transforming their communities and creating opportunities to elevate, defend, and strengthen their cultures and traditional knowledge practices while developing leadership, organizational, and project management skills. Since 2018, we have awarded 157 fellowships supporting over 350 youth from around the globe.
The fellowship projects address important issues such as climate change, food sovereignty, decolonization, language revitalization, land protection, media and art, and the reclaiming of traditions. Indigenous youth play a crucial role in driving change, and their active involvement is essential for passing on ancestral knowledge and ensuring the continuity and vibrancy of their cultures. Join us in celebrating Indigenous youth talent, creativity, and unwavering dedication worldwide.
