Time to support Indigenous-led philanthropy

In this article, republished by Philanthropy Australia and first published in Alliance Magazine, IFIP explores why philanthropy must increase direct funding to Indigenous Peoples and support Indigenous-led philanthropy. Drawing on the Indigenous Led Funds Landscape Scan Report, the article highlights how Indigenous Led Funds advance self-determination, strengthen community relationships, and support giving rooted in Indigenous worldviews and community priorities. It calls on funders to rethink traditional funding practices and build more equitable partnerships that recognize Indigenous leadership and decision-making.
