Covid-19 is still a grave reality, now with a new strain of the virus spreading across the world. When the pandemic first began, we did not expect it to last this long, and no one expected that it would spread so widely and have such a disastrous impact. As we move into 2021, it continues to be crucial to maintain social distance, avoid large groups of people, wash or sanitize our hands and wear masks consistently to stop the spread of the virus.

Limited access to basic health services remains a big problem for Indigenous communities across all continents. Indigenous populations in many countries have experienced poorer health outcomes compared to non-Indigenous populations. Mainstream health services have not adequately met the health needs of Indigenous Peoples in both rural and urban settings.

The coronavirus  (COVID-19)  pandemic  poses  a grave  health threat to Indigenous peoples around the world. Indigenous communities already experience poor access to healthcare, significantly higher rates of communicable and non-communicable diseases, lack of access to essential services, sanitation,  and  other key  preventive measures, such as  clean water, soap, disinfectant, etc.

En este programa de la serie “Los invitados  a comer”, producida por Radio Jënpoj, de Santa María Tlahuitoltepec Mixe, Oaxaca, México, Teresa González, una mujer ayuujk, explica cómo preparar uno de los platillos tradicionales de la gastronomía de los Pueblos Indígenas de la Sierra Norte de Oaxaca: el tamal de amarillo. 

Durante la pandemia por Covid-19, en muchos países del mundo se decretaron periodos de confinamiento con el objetivo de evitar contagios y una mayor expansión de la enfermedad. Aunque en un principio se creyó que sería una medida temporal, en algunos lugares esta situación se alargó durante meses y actividades fundamentales como la educación se realizaron de manera virtual. 

Desde la comunidad de Santa María Tlahuitoltepec, en la Sierra Norte de Oaxaca, México, Radio Jënpoj presenta este podcast en el que reflexiona sobre la cultura musical entre los pueblos y comunidades Indígenas de Oaxaca. Conoce cómo para los pueblos ayuujk, zapotecos y chinantecos que habitan en dicha región la música es esencial en celebraciones como calendas, audiciones, jaripeos, bailes, fiestas patronales y sepelios.

Las parteras tradicionales Indígenas usan plantas o partes de animales para ayudar durante el proceso del parto, esto implica un conocimiento del cuerpo de las mujeres y del territorio donde habitan dichas plantas o animales, además, implica la transmisión de conocimientos de generación en generación. Para que esto pueda preservarse es necesario defender y conservar nuestro territorio.
