Por 51 años, Cultural Survival se ha asociado con comunidades Indígenas para promover sus derechos y culturas en todo el mundo. Visualizamos un futuro que respete y honre los derechos inherentes y las culturas dinámicas de los Pueblos Indígenas, profunda y ricamente entrelazados en tierras, idiomas, tradiciones espirituales y expresiones artísticas y arraigados en la autodeterminación y el autogobierno.

In 2022, The Zienzele Foundation identified the need for a communal space in the Chiware region of Zimbabwe for Shona women’s cooperatives to host their organizational meetings, health clinics, and marketing of traditional handicraft work. In collaboration with Cultural Survival’s Keepers of the Earth Fund, they have since built a community center complex near the village of Mupagamuri to serve the five surrounding villages.

February 11 marks the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, a day to celebrate the contributions that Indigenous women and girls make to the fields of science and technology. It is also a movement that aims to promote the full and equal participation of women and girls in the scientific community. Integral to this movement are Indigenous women who are the holders of generations of Traditional Knowledge and the best stewards of biodiversity.

El pueblo kakataibo habita a lo largo de los ríos Aguaytía, San Alejandro y Sungaroyacu en los departamentos de Ucayali y Huánuco en el centro este del Perú. Se presume que los Pueblos Indígenas de esta zona, documentados inicialmente por misioneros entre 1727 y 1736 y quienes los llamaron Carapachos, son los actuales kakataibo.

World Soil Day is held annually on December 5 as a means to focus attention on the importance of healthy soil and to advocate for the sustainable management of soil resources. For generations, Indigenous Peoples have shaped landscapes through a reciprocal relationship with the land, thus preserving healthy ecosystems. The connection to the land is mutually tied with Indigenous worldviews. Supporting traditional farming for Indigenous communities is vital.
