** Support Indigenous Rights, Leadership, and Solutions on #GivingTuesday!
------------------------------------------------------------

Today is the day! #GivingTuesday, a global day of giving, runs through midnight tonight! We hope that you will join in this day ([link removed]) and season of generosity. Join us in shifting the narrative and resources to support Indigenous languages, solutions, and leadership to build a better world for us all.

We wanted to share a few of our accomplishments in 2021:
* Our Keepers of the Earth Fund supported 62 community projects in 21 countries in COVID-19 response, climate change mitigation, Hurricanes Iota and Eta relief, totaling $303,363.
* Our Indigenous Rights Radio Program produced over 218 urgent public service announcements in 76 Indigenous languages related to COVID-19.
* Our Indigenous Community Media Fund supported 57 media projects in 23 countries totaling $340,500.
* We supported 25 Indigenous Community Media Youth Fellows in 6 countries.
* We trained 50 communicators from Indigenous radio stations and organizations in Mexico to establish new stations and strengthen their existing systems.
* We trained 25 Indigenous women communicators from 24 community radio stations in radio journalism, women's and Indigenous rights.
* We documented 56 murders, 11 disappearances, and 23 violent attacks against Indigenous human rights and environmental defenders in Latin American countries where we work.
* We submitted 6 reports on Indigenous rights to UN mechanisms monitoring human rights implementation.
* 27 Indigenous women from Central America and Mexico participated in a 3-month training in human rights organized by Cultural Survival.

Listen to Charles Eisenstein's New and Ancient Story ([link removed]) podcast with our Executive Director Galina Angarova (Buryat) about her personal and intimate account of Indigenous agency, the gift and abundance economy, nonmonetary wealth, and how to Indigenize, heal, and live in relationship with the land.

"Indigenous Peoples have solutions, we know how to live with the land we are in reciprocity and respect... Humans are not the highest intelligence on this planet. There is much more to what we see, what we hear, what we taste..."

P.S. Have you checked out our Indigenizing Philanthropy Series ([link removed]) ? It is a five-part article series co-authored by Cultural Survival's Executive Director Galina Angarova (Buryat) and Director of Strategic Partnerships and Communications Daisee Francour (Oneida) that provides a framework in how to transform and Indigenize philanthropy. Angarova and Francour offer their dynamic expertise and shed an important light on how philanthropy can take a serious, introspective look at its colonial roots and take authentic actions to remedy its future in a way that is aligned with responsible ways of being and knowing.
