Yankuik Sitlali Radio (Náhuatl)

Yankuik Sitlali Radio’s project aims to give a voice to the Indigenous women of the region and to spread cultural diversity through the internet by gathering the cultural, musical, and artistic expressions of the Huastecan identity to create a strong link among communities. They aspire to position themselves as an intercultural radio station by establishing a unique, autonomous, and self-sustainable communication model in contrast to commercial radio. Their decisions are based on the tradition of the Assembly and the common good.

Cuzcatán Indigenous Press (Nahuat-pipil)

La Niña Community Radio (Maya K'iche')

The main activities of La Niña community radio focus on the custom and traditions of the Maya K'iche' Peoples, the promotion of the Mayan K'iche' language, the defense of life and territory, and the dissemination of human rights, particularly women's rights, with emphasis on promoting their community and political participation. The project seeks to improve the station’s transmission capability by replacing deteriorated equipment that has compromised sound and signal quality.
