Celebrating the diverse journeys and stories of Asian American and Pacific Islander individuals and their identities, Chunzi (Claire) He, Senior Contracts Administrator for Cubic Defense, reflects on the rich cultures and contributions of Asian and Pacific Islander communities and supporters. “I have been actively involved in representing AAPI cultures and communities and also regularly volunteer for environmental conservation efforts, events and community functions,” says Claire. “Improving outcomes for AAPI communities depends on the strength and compassion of the people within them. Any community can achieve incremental improvements in the face of political, social and cultural challenges. This outlook may contribute to further awareness of the impact of their words and actions, and they should strive to contribute in ways that align with values essential for sustaining loving and supportive communities.” #AAPIHeritageMonth

It's #IndigenousPeoplesDay and the theme for 2024 is Protecting the rights of Indigenous Peoples in Voluntary Isolation and Initial Contact. Around 200 groups of Indigenous Peoples currently live in voluntary isolation and initial contact. They are the best protectors of the forest. Where their collective rights to lands and territories are protected, the forests thrive, alongside their societies. And not only is their survival crucial to the protection of our planet, but it is crucial to the protection of cultural and linguistic diversity. Learn more here: https://nuvi.me/yvtbeu

August 9 is International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples. The 2024 United Nations observance focuses on protecting the rights of Indigenous Peoples in voluntary isolation and initial contact. https://lnkd.in/eqGxm562 Although they constitute less than 5% of the world’s population, there are between 370 and 500 million Indigenous Peoples. They contain a multitude of cultures and traditions that enrich our world. Despite their efforts to achieve recognition and protection, their rights are often violated, imperiling their capacity to maintain their ways of life. Indigenous Peoples are often deprived of access to and ownership of their lands and prevented from accessing the natural resources these lands contain. Through advocacy and the inclusion of Indigenous Peoples in decision-making processes, the international community can guarantee their voices are heard to protect their rights, culture, and ways of life.
