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's 2020 Indigenous Community Media Youth Fellows are hard at work. The Fellowship Project aims to support young Indigenous leaders between the ages of 16-26, who are committed and eager to learn about technology, program development, journalism, community radio, media, and Indigenous Peoples’ rights advocacy.

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.

Today, February 21, is International Mother Language Day, first proclaimed in 1952 as "Language Movement Day" by Dhaka University students in Bangladesh (formerly East Pakistan) who were protesting suppression of their Bengali language. Police and military forces opened fire, killing many young people in attendance.

On February 26-29, 2020, Indigenous women from across the American continent will come together in Mexico City for the 8th Continental Conference of Indigenous Women of the Americas. The Conference will be hosted by the Continental Network of Indigenous Women of the Americas (ECMIA), a network of organizations from 23 countries that has been fighting for more than two decades for the individual and collective rights of Indigenous women and children.
On Presidents Day 2020, we reflect on where Native Americans stand after three years of a Trump presidency. Since taking office, the current administration has rolled back policies that protect the rights of Indigenous Peoples and has failed to respect and honor Tribal Nations and their sovereignty.
