Genographic Legacy Fund awards in Indigenous Education, Culture, and Language

[Rudy Troike]

Indigenous Education, Culture, and Language

The Genographic Legacy Fund awards grants on an annual basis for
community-driven projects directly preserving or revitalizing indigenous or
traditional culture around the world. 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. 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. Awards
will typically not exceed US$25,000.

DEADLINE: June 15, 2011
