“The traditional knowledge about biodiversity protection exists in Native languages. If we lose those Native languages, the knowledge will disappear with them.”

Uniting Rural and Urban Indigenous Communities in Peru
Centro Sapichay is working to unite the rural and urban Indigenous communities of the Wanka, Chanka, Ashaninka, Ya’nesha, Awajun, Kana and Quechua Peoples in Peru through an Indigenous-led rapid response network, AWAY (Quechua for “to weave”). AWAY draws upon shared value systems to support rural communities and facilitate communication between urban and rural members.
Cultural Survival tiene el honor de anunciar la convocatoria para propuestas sobre “saberes tradicionales” para jóvenes Indígenas colaboradores en medios comunitarios. Buscamos producciones radiales sobre saberes tradicionales o ancestrales (plantas sagradas, curación, ceremonias, lenguaje, musica) los cuales son bienes colectivos en las comunidades Indígenas.

It is no coincidence that eighty percent of the Earth’s most biodiverse zones overlap with Indigenous lands and territories. Slow Food, a global grassroots organization founded in 1989 to prevent the disappearance of local food cultures and traditions, argues, “from a holistic perspective, Indigenous Peoples’ food systems can provide answers to global issues such as climate change and food sovereignty.” The upcoming Indigenous Terra Madre for Peoples of the Americas conference is poised to add fuel to the ongoing awareness surrounding Indigenous knowledge and land rights.
En medio de un denso hermetismo se logra apenas saber de manera extraoficial que un grupo armado de aproximadamente 80 personas al que identifican como “el grupo armado Kukalón” irrumpió la tranquilidad de la comunidad Alal, Indígena Mayangna, en Bonanza, a 400 kilómetros al noreste de la ciudad capital, Managua.
According to early reports, an armed group of approximately 80 people who identify as “the Kukalón Armed Group” recently disturbed the peace of an Indigenous Mayangna village of Alal, Bonanza, 400 kilometers northeast of Managua, Nicaragua. On January 28, 2020, the group massacred 6 Indigenous Mayangnas, another 10 are reported missing, and several houses were burned. Five of the victims have been identified: Tránsito Mesa, Víctor Díaz, Juan Emilio Devis, Carlos Martín, and Miguel Dixon.
