Help Us Celebrate Our Top 10 Wins of the Decade!

Close the decade right by giving back where it matters. Help Cultural Survival celebrate our achievements of the past decade and set us off on a path for even better success in the next decade to come. Here is a snippet of what we’ve accomplished in the 5th decade of our work partnering with Indigenous Peoples.

Our top 10 achievements this decade include:

2. Helping protect Indigenous lands and territories by stopping land grabbing, oil drilling, toxic dumping, heavy metal mining, and pipelines that desecrate sacred lands and endanger Indigenous communities. 

3. Generating over $4.6 million dollars in income for Indigenous artists through sales at the Cultural Survival Bazaars. 

4. Filing suit against the Guatemalan government to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights for discriminating against Indigenous Peoples in telecomunications laws.

5. Launching the Indigenous Rights Radio Program which reaches over 11 million listeners in 33 languages.
