According to the Articulation of Indigenous Peoples of Brazil (APIB), 8 out of 10 Yanomami children in the northern Amazon rainforest are chronically malnourished. The FIOCRUZ Institute, one of the most respected health and research institutions in Latin America, recently warned that 6 out of 10 Munduruku people in the Amazon have high levels of mercury and malnutrition.
El Fondo de Medios Comunitarios Indígenas de Cultural Survival anuncia seis subvenciones para el 2021, por un total de $24,000, otorgadas a estaciones de radio comunitarias Indígenas para la adquisición de transmisores y / o equipos complementarios en Chile, México, Nepal, Colombia y Haití.
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!
