In October 2020, a group of people representing different Khoi and San Tribes gathered at the foot of Table Mountain in South Africa. There they have created a cultural space where they will stay for an indefinite period of time in an effort to reclaim the mountain. With the temporary huts providing a little shelter, and fire providing a little warmth, they are making it known that the mountain and the area surrounding it had once belonged to their ancestors. Bradley van Sitters is among the folks camped out at the foot of the mountain.

We interview Wilhelmina Van Dyk who coordinated the Khoikhoi language gathering in South Africa. This event put the Khoekhoegowab language in the spotlight and left attendees with basic vocabulary of the language after a few days.

Fossil fuels and other conventional energy sources release many greenhouse gases that harm the environment. For this reason, there is global talk of the need for a transition towards the use of cleaner energy sources and the development of technologies such as battery storage systems, and other cleaner sources of energy. However, for the creation of these energy sources, so-called “transition minerals” are necessary, the extraction of which increases the danger of new displacements and the dispossession of territories from Indigenous Peoples.

Jitsvinger (real name Quintin Goliath) is a celebrated South African artist from the Cape Flats known for fusing hip hop, poetry, theatre, and storytelling into a distinctive performance style rooted in Afrikaaps—the vernacular Afrikaans dialect of Cape Town. In this radio interview, Jitsvinger tells us about how his heritage influenced his music. We hear how Indigenous Khoi and San languages mixed with Dutch and languages from others who were brought to South Africa as slaves, contributed to the formation of Afrikaans, and how this heritage influences his music.

UNESCO calls on radio stations to celebrate World Radio Day's 10th anniversary and the more than 110 years of radio. Cultural Survival's Indigenous Rights Radio supported the Khwe people from the Okavango region in starting Khwedam Radio – a radio station that will assist the Khwe and !Xun speaking San Peoples  to be able to communicate better with each other in remote regions of Namibia.

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.

After months of clinical trials by many companies in different countries, several vaccines, which are 94-95% effective, have finally been approved and are now making their way to hospitals, clinics and doctors rooms. Successful trials of the vaccines have taken place with medical professionals and the elderly. Vaccines against COVID-19 will be available to us soon.

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.

Durante la pandemia de Covid-19, las mujeres han tenido un papel fundamental, respondiendo con eficacia a las necesidades que trajo consigo esta contingencia sanitaria. No obstante, se acrecentaron las dificultades para el ejercicio de su derecho a la participación política y se enfrentaron, entre otras cosas, a un incremento en las jornadas de cuidados hacia sus familias, a mayor marginación y violencia. 

De acuerdo con la Organización Mundial de la Salud, la salud es un estado de completo bienestar físico, mental y social, que permite a la persona realizar sus actividades, hacer frente al estrés normal de la vida, trabajar de forma productiva y contribuir a su comunidad; es decir, la salud no es únicamente la ausencia de trastornos o enfermedades físicas o mentales.

A los Pueblos Indígenas del mundo históricamente se nos ha negado el pleno ejercicio de nuestro derecho a la salud, los Estados-nación han limitado nuestro acceso a servicios de salud adecuados a pesar de que este derecho se contempla en acuerdos y tratados internacionales como el convenio 169 sobre Pueblos Indígenas y Tribales de la Organización Internacional del Trabajo y la Declaración de las Naciones Unidas sobre los Derechos de los Pueblos Indígenas.
