** Meet Our 2023 Keepers of the Earth Fund Grant Partners Focused on Strengthening Traditional Medicine and Indigenous Spirituality
------------------------------------------------------------

The Keepers of the Earth Fund ([link removed]) (KOEF) is proud to announce that in 2023 we awarded over half a million dollars in small grants to support Indigenous projects on issues related to community empowerment for land defense and autonomy ([link removed]) ; the transmission of Indigenous Knowledge ([link removed]) ; traditional medicine and Indigenous spirituality; food sovereignty and Indigenous economies; and the various forms of resistance to mining for the energy transition.

In total, in 2023, 68 Indigenous projects and collectives were financed for a total amount of $512,267. The funds were sent directly to Indigenous communities and collectives and Indigenous grassroots organizations in 21 countries.

At Cultural Survival, we value cultivating long-term relationships with our partners. Therefore, we awarded 22 grants to organizations that had received grants in prior years, representing one-third of this year's total. Following our programmatic priority of supporting Indigenous women and youth, 16 organizations led by Indigenous women and 9 projects either led by or directly supporting Indigenous youth were financed.

The Keepers of the Earth Fund is an Indigenous-led fund at Cultural Survival designed to support Indigenous Peoples' advocacy and community development projects globally. Since 2017, we have supported 306 projects in 41 countries through small grants and wrap-around support totaling $1,571,969. Grants go directly to Indigenous communities, collectives, organizations, and traditional governments to support projects designed by them and in accordance with their Indigenous values. Predicated on the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, Cultural Survival uses a rights-based approach in our grantmaking strategies to support grassroots Indigenous solutions through the equitable distribution of resources to Indigenous communities.

​El Fondo Guardianes de la Tierra ([link removed]) (KOEF, por sus siglas en inglés) se enorgullece de anunciar que este año entregó más de medio millón de dólares en pequeñas subvenciones para apoyar proyectos Indígenas en temas relacionados con: 1) el fortalecimiento comunitario para la defensa de la tierra y autonomía ([link removed]) ; 2) la transmisión del conocimiento Indígena ([link removed]) ; 3) la medicina tradicional y la espiritualidad Indígena; 4) la soberanía alimentaria y las economías Indígenas; 5) y las diversas formas de resistencia a la minería para la transición energética.

En total se financiaron 68 proyectos colectivos e Indígenas, por un monto total de $512,267 dólares estadounidenses, enviados directamente a comunidades y colectivos Indígenas, y organizaciones Indígenas de base en 21 países.

En Cultural Survival, nos interesa mantener relaciones a largo plazo con nuestros socios, por lo que entregamos 22 subvenciones a organizaciones que habían recibido subvenciones en años anteriores, lo que representa una tercera parte del total de este año. Además, siguiendo nuestra prioridad programática de apoyar a mujeres y jóvenes, se financiaron 16 organizaciones lideradas por mujeres Indígenas y 9 proyectos dirigidos a jóvenes o liderados por ellos.
