** Meet Our 2020 Keepers of the Earth Fund Grant Partners
------------------------------------------------------------
Cultural Survival’s Keepers of the Earth Fund ([link removed]) provides small grants designed to support Indigenous Peoples’ community advocacy and development projects. Since 2007, the Fund has provided nearly $3 million in grants and technical assistance to over 450 Indigenous-led projects in 65 countries around the world.
The Fund provides grants up to $10,000 that go directly to grassroots Indigenous organizations and groups to support their self-designed projects based on local, traditional values. Projects address a vast array of economic and cultural development strategies including cultural retention, language revitalization, food sovereignty, climate change, gender equality, battling extractive industries, Free, Prior and Informed Consent, leadership and governance.
