Love diving into this data, and it is a reminder of Alan Lomax's attempts at a "Global Jukebox", but with immediate access to underlying data, and broader themes that are defined by the community themselves. Suggest to start here: https://lnkd.in/ee9dFuek then click on one of the plus (+) signs, to see community examples and have a look at the ways that UNESCO has obtained consent from those communities.

Today is #IndigenousPeoplesDay, a day of reflection and celebration. For those of us in US #nonprofit and #philanthropy spaces, it can also be a time to consider the intersection of our work and Native communities and causes. Consider these stats from Native Americans in Philanthropy and Candid (https://lnkd.in/erwKmBi): ◼ From 2002 to 2016, large US foundations gave, on average, 0.4% of total annual funding to Native American communities and causes ◼ 20% of large foundations give to Native communities and causes. Even among this specific group, most give only one or two grants. ◼ The majority of grant dollars are for program support (56%); only 15% goes to general operating support 💡 Important takeaways for improving support include providing long-term general operating support to Native-led organizations, and pursuing Native-led solutions.
