Human Rights recognize the inherent dignity and equality of all humans. They are:
• Universal—they belong to everyone, and apply equally to all people. All governments are equally accountable for upholding these standards.
• Interdependent—they are interconnected; often one right depends on the fulfillment of another.
• Inalienable—Human rights are inherent to each person and cannot be taken away.

Cultural Survival’s internship program is an integral part of the organization. Interns actively participate in their assigned program or department and play an essential role in daily operations while achieving the learning objectives of their internship.

Personal Information:
Cultural Survival’s Advocacy Program supports Indigenous Peoples around the globe by amplifying grassroots movements to bring awareness and international pressure to their struggles while enhancing Indigenous communities’ capacity, always at the invitation of community leaders, to demand and assert their rights outlined in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. Since 2005, Cultural Survival has held consultative status with UN Economic, Social, and Cultural Council (ECOSOC).
