Como integrantes de un pueblo originario en el Sur de México (el Pueblo Mixteco o Ñuu Savi), y en estos años que llevamos ya como educadores y comunicadores comunitarios de nuestra región, una de las dificultades más comunes y poco discutidas que nos ha tocado enfrentar a varias compañeras y compañeros ha sido la romantización de nuestros procesos de resistencia comunitarios, lo cual se ha dado por parte de activistas, comunicadores, académicos, organizaciones y compañeros de otras latitudes.

Supporting Indigenous Women’s Leadership in Media

Indigenous women’s voices matter. Cultural Survival supports Indigenous women’s leadership in media. "For a visible life in a limited world" is a training process for Indigenous women communicators in community journalism with an intercultural gender approach. Our trainings support Indigenous women’s leadership in radio by working to improve their radio operations through a series of workshops and exchanges. We train local volunteers in journalism, broadcasting, interviewing, recording, audio editing, and technical skills.

Central American Indigenous Community Media Alliance

The Central American Indigenous Community Media Alliance promotes Indigenous people’s voices in the media. The Alliance is composed of three organizations: Cultural Survival; EntreMundos; and the Central American Network of Indigenous Community Radio Stations and represents more than 60 radio stations in the seven Central American countries. Together, the Alliance fosters alternative, independent and Indigenous-controlled media, contributing to building democracies and providing relevant and accurate information to the public.
