Give back where it matters. Below is a snippet of what we’ve accomplished partnering with Indigenous Peoples across the world.
 

Our top 10 achievements from recent years include: 

1. In 2022, we celebrated our 50th year of service working toward fulfilling and securing Indigenous Peoples’ rights. Together with your support, we have built an Indigenous-led and majority women organization, with 33 staff based in 11 countries.

2. In 2021, we won a groundbreaking international legal suit against the Guatemalan government in the Inter-American Court of Human Rights for the discrimination against Indigenous Peoples in telecommunications laws which violate Indigenous rights "to freedom of expression, equality before the law, and participation in cultural life."

3. We granted more than $2.5 million dollars in the past five years to Indigenous communities to support an array of self-determined development, advocacy, and media projects through our Keepers of the Earth Fund and the Indigenous Community Media Fund.
 

4. In 2022, we launched the Securing Indigenous Peoples Rights in the Green Economy Coalition to raise awareness about the impacts of mining for minerals that power the global transition to a green economy, and to hold companies accountable to human rights commitments to Indigenous Peoples throughout the supply chain.

5. We provided capacity building and training in radio production, journalism, land defense, human rights, communications, and leadership skills to over 248 Indigenous women over the past five years.

6. We supported 82 Indigenous youth fellows in 16 countries through our Indigenous Youth Fellowship program since 2018.
 

7. We brought Indigenous rights violations to the attention of the international community through 114 reports submitted to the United Nations regarding 56 countries.
 

8. In 2022, our Indigenous Rights Radio team attended COP27 in Sharm El Sheik and interviewed more than 40 Indigenous leaders and activists about their work in combating climate change.

9. In 2022, we informed over 3 million people about Indigenous issues via our award-winning Cultural Survival Quarterly magazine, website, and social media channels.

10. In the past six years, we generated over $1.7 million dollars in income for Indigenous artists through sales at the Cultural Survival Bazaars to support their economic sovereignty and livelihoods.

We are just $7,217 away from reaching our $250,000 end-of-year goal! EVERY gift counts, small and large, and we ask you again for your support to help us to work towards 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.

We are so grateful to walk this journey together with you and we are deeply honored for your partnership, generosity, and support!

From everyone here at Cultural Survival, we wish you and your loved ones good health, peace, joy, justice, and abundance in 2022.
