Fundraising Tips:
Increase the impact you make by asking your friends and family to support Cultural Survival with you. With social fundraising, it has never been easier to reach your fundraising goals. The best part is that you can personalize your fundraising team page with your own story and message to show others why Cultural Survival is important to you.
By Jess Cherofsky (CS STAFF) “Food sovereignty is knowing the species we have on our lands, knowing what kind of seeds to plant in each territory,” said Clemencia Herrera from the Colombian Amazon in the working group on food sovereignty and the World Conference of Indigenous Women, which took place in Lima, Peru, October 28-30, 2013.
The Special Rapporteur on the rights of Indigenous Peoples, James Anaya, made his final report to the United Nations Human Rights Council on September 18, 2013. He presented six reports that included issues affecting Indigenous Peoples in various regions as well as a compilation of his work while being the Speical Rapporteur.
On Friday, August 9 at 11:00AM EST, in celebration of International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples, we hosted a webinar, along with First Peoples Worldwide and the International Indian Treaty Council, entitled “Engaging FPIC: Understanding, Interpretation, and Self-Determination.”
Thank you for doing this work. FPIC is a critical part of self-determination – and an inspiration for the Idle No More movement.
