ABOUT THE CAUSE

Cultural Survival

Cultural Survival supports a movement of empowered Indigenous Peoples organizing their communities to engage the international processes, national policies and human rights bodies to respect, protect, and fulfill their rights.
The Rarámuri (Tarahumara) rely on the rich heritage of the many maize varieties their ancestors domesticated and brought to the Sierra Tarahumara of Northern Mexico. Rarámuri women in the Sierra keep alive the knowledge of medicinal and edible plants to improve the wellbeing of both the people and the landscape. As more people return to nurturing botanical varieties that bring them more vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants, the fields, hillsides, animals and insects benefit from a richer and stronger web of biodiversity.
