The reports you can download from this page are part of a four-part series produced by the IKhana Fund planning team.
Standing Our Ground for the Land: An Indigenous Philanthropy was the first volume of this series. It introduces and builds a very basic understanding of the fundamental principles of Indigenous Knowledge our group feels are important to Western allies who want to support Indigenous-led environmental projects. Standing Our Ground is available for free download here.
The three volumes that follow Standing Our Ground are sequential 2025/2026 publications that must be read in order. The first two are now available for free download and the last one listed here is in production and will be released in 2026. Each of these new volumes includes an Opening Ceremony and a Closing Ceremony. We respectfully ask each participant in this relationship with us to read Ceremony as they begin and finish reading each of the volumes and come to those pages. Each volume also includes a small introductory passage entitled “Three Baskets of Knowledge.” Once it has been read, it can thereafter be used simply as a reference when needed.
