Cultural Survival has been working to decolonize and Indigenize our practices and operations by incorporating Indigenous cosmologies and ways of being into our day-to-day work. We have also been reviewing our internal policies and drafting new documents through this staff-led process and the results are incredible!

Indigenous rights are the solution to climate change!
At Cultural Survival, our staff and board came together over a series of months to build and manifest what we believe are the core values of our organization, as we act both internally with members of a team, and externally with our wider kin, partners, donors and members, partner organizations and stakeholders. Developing this list of values and principles has been a multi-stage process that engaged Cultural Survival’s full staff, leadership, and Board of Directors over a period of months.

November 1 is the start of Native American Heritage Month and it is an excellent time to celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ brilliance, resilience, and cultural and language diversity!
