Cultural Survival Staff visiting grant partner Radio Nimlajacoc, a Q'eqchi' community radio station located in Cobán, Guatemala. Serving the community since 2012, Radio Nimlajacoc ran on a generator because there is no access to electricity in their area. Today, they are a solar-powered radio, decreasing their carbon footprint and increasing their on air hours.

Over the past year, with your support, we funded 35 media projects in 9 countries, totaling $210,000.

* The Keepers of the Earth Fund is a small grants fund that supports Indigenous Peoples’ community advocacy and development projects. We awarded 20 projects in 10 countries, totaling $79,864.


Also in 2019, together, we:
* Supported 6 groups of Indigenous Community Media Youth Fellows from Nicaragua, Colombia, Guatemala and Ecuador in building capacity in media, journalism, radio production, advocacy skills, technical abilities, and regional networking.

* Submitted 8 reports on Indigenous Peoples' rights violations to the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) and UN Treaty Bodies in El Salvador, Honduras, Panama, Mexico, Chile, Colombia, and the U.S.

* Trained 80+ Indigenous women in radio production and radio journalism.

* Released over 160 Indigenous Rights Radio programs in 69 countries to 1000+ stations on Indigenous rights topics, such as Indigenous languages, Indigenous women’s rights, food sovereignty, and Sustainable Development Goals.
