Genographic Legacy Fund grants

[RNLD Admin]

Dear RNLDers,

The Genographic Legacy
Fund<https://genographic.nationalgeographic.com/genographic/legacy_fund.html>is
inviting applications for grants. GLF awards grants on an annual basis
for community-driven projects directly preserving or revitalizing indigenous
or traditional culture. Projects from around the world have been funded
through this source.

To be eligible for funding, projects must be community-driven and deliver a
positive, tangible, and timely benefit that is sustainable after GLF funds
have been expended. Projects must also show a strong level of local
community involvement in their planning, governance, and implementation.

Funded projects have included documenting a traditional language, oral
history, or ceremony; creating culturally-specific educational materials and
programs; establishing a local museum or archive; inter-generational
knowledge sharing; and preserving significant sites and artifacts.

Applications are due June 15 annually.

Awards will typically not exceed US$25,000.

*Restrictions*: GLF grants are not intended to be used for indirect costs,
overhead, legal actions, and other expenses not directly related to the
proposed project. Funds may not be used for salaries, travel or conferences,
or for construction or land acquisition.

Applicants with sufficient email access are encouraged to submit their
application via email to GenographicLegacy at ngs.org.

Applicants without sufficient email access may submit their application by
mail or fax.
