Survival International

For tribes, for nature, for all humanity

From the Amazon to the Kalahari, from the jungles of India to the Congo rainforest, we work in partnership with Indigenous peoples to protect their lives and land. They suffer racism, land theft, forced development and genocidal violence just because they live differently. It must stop.

Support the movement

We reject money from governments so our integrity is never compromised. We rely entirely on your donations – without you, there can be no Survival.

What we do

We fight for Indigenous peoples’ survival. We stop loggers, miners, and oil companies from destroying Indigenous lands, lives and livelihoods across the globe. We lobby governments to recognize Indigenous land rights. We document and expose the atrocities committed against Indigenous people and take direct action to stop them.

We give Indigenous peoples a platform to speak to the world. We’ve had over 200 victories since 1969, but our work is far from over and we need your help.
