La lucha por la vida en el Sureste de México
Desde hace varios años, pueblos y comunidades Indígenas en el Sureste de México, que comprende Estados como Chiapas, Campeche, Yucatán y Quintana Roo, se enfrentan a todo tipo de megaproyectos en sus territorios. Cientos de hectáreas de selvas han sido devastadas para dar paso a monocultivos de soya, sorgo y arroz; también para la instalación de mega granjas de cerdos, parques eólicos y fotovoltaicos, y recientemente, para el paso del llamado Tren Maya.
El consentimiento libre, previo, e informado de pueblos indígenas
El derecho del Consentimiento Libre, Previo e Informado significa que los pueblos indígenas pueden usar sus tierras y recursos como los que quieran. También, el derecho significa que los pueblos indígenas están incluidos en una consulta si alguno proyecto de desarrollo está propuesto en su tierra.
Estatus de Observador Permanente en la ONU para pueblos y naciones indígenas
El estado observador permanente para los pueblos indígenas significaría que los pueblos indígenas podrían tener la participación directa a través sus propios gobiernos y propias comisiones.
El derecho a la educación
Los pueblos indígenas tienen el derecho para establecer su propia educación y sus propios sistemas de conocimiento para que enseñen exactamente a las generaciones del futuro sobre sus historias, valores, creencias y idiomas.
Cambio climático y ecosistemas
Los estados deben trabajar con las comunidades indígenas para implementar las iniciativas del cambio climático que protegen las tierras y los recursos de los pueblos indígenas. Esto se debe cumplir através de una estrategia ejecutable que esta basada en el ecosistema.

Freedom Of The Press Is The Foundation Of Justice
Press freedom is of major concern to Indigenous journalists. They are seeking this freedom so that they can report freely in their communities and their local and national governments. When Indigenous Peoples are facing injustices, it is Indigenous media and journalists who are at the frontlines to tell their stories, but many Indigenous journalists are facing obstacles with regard to free press in their communities. On this World Press Freedom Day, Francine Compton, Associate Director of the Native American Journalists Association speaks to Cultural Survival.
Threats To Indigenous Journalists Must End!
Democracy and justice cannot exist without freedom of expression and freedom of the press. Today, by and large, the mainstream media is owned and controlled by socially and economically powerful people, resulting in a lack of access, voice, and participation of Indigenous Peoples. On the auspicious day of World's Press Freedom Day, Indigenous broadcasters call attention to the right of Indigenous Media, Article 16 of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP).
