Invest in Planetary Resilience: Partner with the Guardians of Living Knowledge

Launching the Indigenous-led Global Alliance —a historic, multi-year platform to safeguard our most vital regenerative asset.

A historic alliance of Indigenous leaders is uniting to protect the world’s most vital living knowledge systems. Now, they are calling on visionary funders, philanthropists, and change-makers to join them in this critical initiative for our collective future.

Indigenous Peoples are the world’s most proven custodians of regenerative knowledge—stewards of sophisticated living systems refined over millennia. As climate and biodiversity crises accelerate, these ancestral biocultural sciences face existential threat.

This is not charity. This is a strategic investment in planetary resilience.

The Initiative: A $10M Indigenous-led Alliance

This campaign serves as the public activation layer for a larger $10M, 3–5 year platform initiative. We are mobilizing two tiers of catalytic partnership to launch this vital work:

  • Founding Alliance Partners ($250K+) – Anchor the Alliance's core governance, protection, and global dialogue.

  • Steward Partners ($1M+) – Co-create the long-term platform for Indigenous-led planetary stewardship.

Our public goal of $1.5M–$3M in catalytic capital will directly enable the critical first phase:

  • Consolidating the Indigenous-led governance and alliance infrastructure.

  • Protecting biocultural territories and ensuring knowledge continuity.

  • Positioning Indigenous Leaders in high-impact convenings such as Davos and other strategic forums to shape global agendas.

  • Activating a global model for long-term stewardship.

The remaining capital for the multi-year platform will be secured through direct commitments initiated with our partners in Davos.

This is a strategic investment in a new paradigm of collaboration. Your partnership enables a decisive shift from crisis to continuity, led by the Earth's foremost knowledge keepers.

Finnish Flow is mobilizing capital and partners in Davos to stand with this initiative. The time for alliance is now.

The Alliance is supported by its fiscal sponsor and partner, Earth Codes Observatory (ECO). This U.S. non-profit, led by an Indigenous Executive Director, has a five-year track record working to safeguard Indigenous knowledge systems—from language preservation and data sovereignty to biomimicry and regenerative design.

Chief Biraci Nixiwaka Brasil and Benki Piyãko, are building a historic alliance to protect the world’s most vital living knowledge systems. This unique process has already united representatives from 34 Indigenous Nations from the Americas and is transforming their stance from resistance to offering. We are now forging deep partnerships to safeguard, transmit, and apply this irreplaceable wisdom.

Just like chefs, data scientists and engineers need good ingredients. Even the finest tools and fanciest techniques will not save you if you have poor-quality ingredients.

Ultra-processed junk food deprives the body of nourishment in the same way vastly incomplete data sets do to our culture and planet. The Earthcodes Data Commons exists to fill in the gaps which would otherwise erase the digital participation of those who hold Earth’s regenerative knowledge/data — e.g. indigenous communities and paywalled scientists.
