Radio has been over for over a century and it is still relevant today, probably more than it has ever been. Let us look at some of the reasons why: Radios are portable, unlike television.

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.

They play a crucial role in safeguarding large areas of land and possess valuable traditional knowledge that can help with adapting to climate change.

De acuerdo con la Organización de las Naciones Unidas (ONU), en la actualidad en el mundo se hablan cerca de 7 mil idiomas, y pese a que los Pueblos Indígenas constituyen menos del 6% de la población mundial ellos hablan mas de 4000 idiomas.
En el mundo se habla diversos idiomas Indígenas, Según datos de las Naciones Unidas se hablan alrededor de 4000 idiomas. Pero lamentablemente también existe la realidad de que cada son más los idiomas Indígenas en peligro de desaparecer.
¿Qué acciones se están implementando para rescatar y revitalizar los idiomas Indígenas en el mundo?
In this report from Liberty Radio in Nigeria, the producers investigate the challenges related to education, and why education as a right sounds far-fetched.

In most countries that were colonized, education is in the language of the colonizer, thus causing Indigenous languages to suffer greatly.
How do we protect languages on the brink of extinction? How do we educate the next generation about the languages spoken by their forefathers?

Indigenous Peoples have known how to live on and take care of the land since times immemorial. We know that wherever you find cultural diversity, you will be sure to find biological diversity, in fact globally there are overlaps of areas rich in biodiversity with areas of cultural and linguistic diversity. These are the areas managed by Indigenous Peoples.

A Just Transition for Indigenous Peoples is one that centers a human rights approach and the protection of biodiversity and advances Indigenous sovereignty and self-determination in all endeavors relating to the building of green economies. Doing this will require that all stakeholders observe and fully implement the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and the right to self-determination and Free, Prior and Informed Consent in all decision-making.
Como su nombre lo indica, los minerales de transición son fundamentales para la transición energética, es decir, para dejar atrás el uso de combustibles fósiles que son altamente contaminantes; además, fortalecer el uso de energías renovables, como la solar o la eólica. Dicha transición, ayudará a disminuir el calentamiento global y el cambio climático.
Each year the International Day of Peace is observed around the world on 21 September. The UN General Assembly has declared this as a day devoted to strengthening the ideals of peace, through observing 24 hours of non-violence and cease-fire.
But achieving true peace entails much more than laying down arms. It requires the building of societies where all members feel that they can flourish. It involves creating a world in which people are treated equally, regardless of their race.

Poverty, low levels of education and illiteracy, limited access to health care, basic sanitation, credit, and employment, limited participation in political life, and domestic and sexual violence are all prevalent problems among indigenous women. Besides, their right to self-determination, self-governance and control of resources and ancestral lands have been violated over centuries.
Still, Indigenous women are ensuring that traditional knowledge is carried over from generation to generation.
Language Activist Letitia Petersen tells us more.
As the backbone of Indigenous communities, Indigenous women have over the years been instrumental in the preservation and transmission of traditional ancestral knowledge. As protectors of natural resources and keepers of scientific knowledge, Indigenous women are integral to the survival of their traditions.

Madre tierra, así es como los pueblos definen al suelo y todo ser vivo que habita sobre ella.
Los Pueblos indígenas la cuidan y protegen desde tiempos ancestrales a diferencia de muchas empresas extranjeras que llegan a instalarse en sus territorios provocando deforestación, desvío de ríos, desplome hasta de montañas completas. Eso, sin sumar los daños físicos, psicológicos y económicos que deja una empresa extractiva a su paso.
Desde la época colonial y en todo el mundo, los Pueblos Indígenas han defendido sus tierras y territorios. A la fecha la lucha sigue siendo principalmente contra empresas extractivas que los despojan, violan sus derechos y saquean sus bienes naturales, como ocurre en Perú.

Indigenous Peoples play a crucial role in the conservation of the environment and ecosystems, as their survival very much depends on water, land, and natural resources. Indigenous Peoples are often called the custodians or stewards of the Earth. It is estimated that 25 percent of the earth's land surface is occupied, owned, and managed by Indigenous Peoples. This is no coincidence as Indigenous cultures are rooted in relationships with lands and territories.
