In commemoration of World Poetry Day on March 21, 2021, Cultural Survival spoke to poet and artist Brigit Truex (Abenaki/Cree) about how, through her art and poetry, she has been able to find the recognition necessary to experience wholeness with her Indigenous identity.
On December 17, 2020, United Nations Secretary General António Guterres appointed Pablo Mis, Maya Q’eqchi’ from Laguna Village, Toledo District, Belize, to the Advisory Board of Trustees of the United Nations Voluntary Fund for Indigenous Peoples. This is the first time that an Indigenous representative from Belize is appointed to the Board of the Fund.

The Indigenizing Philanthropy series is a five-part article series accompanied with a webinar to provide a framework in how to transform and Indigenize philanthropy. Galina Angarova (Buryat) and Daisee Francour (Oneida/Haudenosaunee) have unique experiences as Indigenous women, having both worked in philanthropy as program officers for private foundations and as fundraisers for NGOs.
Cultural Survival is excited to announce the appointment of three new members to our distinguished board of directors this year. Joining the board are Valine Brown (Haida), Carla Fredericks (Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara), and Jannie Staffansson (Saami).
June 1 is our founding day and also our annual giving day.
On April 6, 2020, the UN Expert Mechanism on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples released the following statement:
COVID-19 yet another challenge for Indigenous Peoples
The global reach of the COVID-19 virus affects us all, but some groups will suffer disproportionately and in different ways. Indigenous peoples are such a group.
