** Meet our 2022 Keepers of the Earth Fund Grant Partners
------------------------------------------------------------

The Keepers of the Earth Fund (KOEF) team is pleased to announce the list of our 2022 partners, whose projects we support in this complex year where climate change and the pandemic continue to be at the forefront of concern, while the defense of Indigenous territories requires ever greater efforts.

In 2022, the Keepers of the Earth Fund supported 65 projects totaling $308,067 in 20 countries. The financed projects address diverse topics that have the community as their center, but that can be generally categorized into six areas: Indigenous art and creativity; Indigenous response to climate change; Indigenous defense, autonomy, and self-determination; intergenerational Indigenous Knowledge and biocultural heritage transmission; and food sovereignty.

Most of the projects involve young people, and the majority are led by women. Cultural Survival works to strengthen Indigenous women’s and youth leadership, and this round of financing reflects this programmatic priority. Notably, one-fifth of this year’s partners are partners from past years, with some continuing the work started with previous grants. This is particularly important because we seek long-term collaborative relationships so that the efforts have the greatest impact.

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 238 projects in 38 countries through small grants and technical assistance totaling $1,070,602. The funds go directly to Indigenous communities, collectives, organizations, and traditional governments to support projects designed by them and in accordance with their Indigenous values. Based on the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, we at Cultural Survival use a rights-based approach in our grantmaking strategies to support grassroots Indigenous solutions through the equitable distribution of resources to Indigenous communities.

En el equipo del Fondo Guardianes de la Tierra (KOEF, por sus siglas en inglés) estamos felices de anunciar la lista de socios 2022, cuyos proyectos acompañamos y apoyamos en este año complejo donde el cambio climático y la crisis provocada por el coronavirus siguen estando en el centro de las preocupaciones, mientras que la defensa de los territorios Indígenas requiere cada vez de mayores esfuerzos.

En 2022 el Fondo Guardianes de la Tierra apoyó 65 proyectos, equivalentes a un total de $308,067 dólares estadounidenses, en 20 países. Los proyectos financiados abordan temas diversos centrando a la comunidad, en los siguientes seis temas generales: 1) arte y creatividad Indígena; 2) respuesta Indígena al cambio climático; 3) defensa, autonomía y autodeterminación Indígena; 4) transmisión intergeneracional de la memoria y la herencia bio-cultural; 5) revitalización de idiomas indígenas; y 6) soberanía alimentaria.

La mayoría de los proyectos involucran a jóvenes, y la mayoría son liderados por mujeres. Cultural Survival trabaja para fortalecer el liderazgo de mujeres y jóvenes Indígenas, y esta ronda de financiamiento refleja esta prioridad programática. En particular, una quinta parte de los socios de este año son socios de años anteriores y algunos continúan el trabajo iniciado con subvenciones anteriores. Esto es especialmente importante porque buscamos relaciones de colaboración a largo plazo para que los esfuerzos tengan mayor impacto.

Guardianes de la Tierra es un fondo de Cultural Survival, liderado por Indígenas y diseñado para apoyar proyectos de defensa y desarrollo comunitario de Pueblos Indígenas a nivel mundial. Desde 2017, hemos apoyado 238 proyectos en 38 países, a través de pequeñas subvenciones y asistencia técnica, con un total de $1,070,602 dólares estadounidenses. Los fondos van directamente a comunidades, colectivos, organizaciones y gobiernos tradicionales Indígenas, para apoyar proyectos diseñados por ellos mismos y de acuerdo con sus valores Indígenas. Con base en la Declaración de las Naciones Unidas sobre los Derechos de los Pueblos Indígenas, en Cultural Survival utilizamos un enfoque de derechos en nuestras estrategias de concesión de subvenciones para apoyar las soluciones Indígenas de base a través de la distribución equitativa de recursos a las comunidades Indígenas.
