Executive Director, Cultural Survival in Cambridge, Massachusetts <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Salary: Open <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Type: Full Time – Senior <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Cultural Survival is a global leader in advancing the world’s Indigenous Peoples’ rights to their lands, languages, and cultures. We seek a new Executive Director who will be the public face of the organization and who will lead us to a significantly higher level of Indigenous inclusiveness, visibility, financial security, and overall effectiveness. The ideal candidate will be experienced, dynamic, mobile, personable, media-savvy, and passionate about partnering with, empowering, and advocating on behalf of Indigenous Peoples. What Cultural Survival Does Most of the world’s 370 million Indigenous Peoples suffer from neglect, discrimination, or outright abuse from governments and\/or corporate interests that usurp their power and perpetuate centuries-old patterns of domination. These patterns disregard Indigenous autonomy, control over homelands, and governance. Poverty, isolation, and forced assimilation often go hand in hand with complex issues arising from land claims, degradation of the environment, theft of intellectual property, and loss of language and cultural traditions. Cultural Survival works hand-in-hand with affected communities to ensure that our efforts are in concert with local cultures and decision-making processes. To effectively improve the well-being of diverse peoples across the planet, Cultural Survival selects projects with lasting value that at the same time provide replicable models to others. Cultural Survival partners with Indigenous communities, at their request, to assist them in achieving their goals. Currently, we are partnering with Native American communities\u00adover half of which risk losing their remaining elderly language speakers within the next five years\u00adto find ways to pass their languages on to their children. We are supporting locally-based and run community radio stations to provide educational and empowerment-focused broadcasting for remote Indigenous communities in Guatemala. And, we are working on advocacy campaigns where Indigenous homelands are threatened by large-scale development projects in places like the Philippines, Indonesia, Panama, Brazil, and the United States. Cultural Survival partners with the United Nations and regional human rights bodies, supportive members of the U.S. Congress and Administration, nongovernmental human rights and environmental protection organizations, and, most importantly, national and local Indigenous leaders and communities. The efficacy of Cultural Survival’s work is promoted by transparency and by our accountability to an expert cohort of Indigenous leaders who serve on our Board of Directors and in advisory roles. The Position Cultural Survival’s new Executive Director will have overall responsibility for the organization’s development and continued success. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
