Local Contexts is connected with Indigenous communities, institutions, researchers, and integration partners around the world.

For the past 15 years, our relationships have helped us to build out the Local Contexts Labels and Notices as practical tools for supporting Indigenous rights. 

On this #GivingTuesday, we are excited to begin accepting donations to sustain our work and directly support Indigenous communities to uphold their sovereignty. 

Through your donations, the Local Contexts Label Development Fund provides capacity support for Indigenous communities to uphold their sovereignty using the Local Contexts tools.

We have heard repeatedly from Indigenous communities that the greatest barrier to their use of Local Contexts is capacity. To address this, the Fund expands access to essential resources including staff time, training, and community workshops.

This week, our goal is to raise $5,000US to establish the Fund. We invite you to donate to help advance the authority and local power of Indigenous communities. 

Local Contexts is recognized as a 501(c)3 tax-exempt nonprofit organization with the US Internal Revenue Service. In the US, your donation is tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.
