Indigenous Systems
Design

Ensure
the wellspring continues to flow
for all life

Collaborate with Indigenous Systems Designers on evolutionary processes rooted in kinship and protection.

In 2026, as KinMakers join this movement, we will flow $5M to three tributaries:

Kinship Financing Facility

Asset Stacking
for Aliveness

A participatory financial infrastructure to weave a diverse set of nature and life-positive assets stewarded and improved by KinHubs. The result: crystalized outcome measures, trackable through a Kinship Regenerative Value Index (KRVI)

Indigenous Praxis Labs

Systems for Learning
and Listening

KinHubs convene across regions and cultures to set hypotheses, emerging practices and approaches to monitoring and contributing to transformation.

Over time we increasinly redefine value and outcomes through biocultural knowledge and relationship.

KinHubs

Reclaiming the Commons

A KinHub is a place where ancestral memory and modern innovation meet.

Here Indigenous leaders, grandmothers and values-aligned community members reimagine economy and governance as acts of care, guided by the wisdom of their lands and ancestors.

Invest for Impact 2026

After 5 years of Indigenous Systems Design we’re ready to identify our first inner circle of trusted KinMakers, to support as we strengthen and repair value rooted in the communities where all life is sacred.

We begin together in the seed beds — setting up the legal, technical, and cultural infrastructure that makes the whole ecosystem thrive. This is a painstaking and careful process. It is not the glory of the harvest, it is the tending of the future health of generations to come.

This flow comes in initial grants and participatory notes, to reach our $5 Million launch threshold.

In 2026 KinMakers Support:

  • Legal and governance frameworks (Kinship Financing Facility infrastructure, data/identity systems)

  • Capacity for regional KinshipHub/Praxis Labs

  • The data infrastructure for a Kinship Regenerative Value Index

  • An 18-month operating foundation to launch

Scroll Through Innovations

  • Kinship Regenerative Value Index

    Instead of GDP-style metrics, KRVI will track rooted value, such as:

    • Ecology – biodiversity, water, fire risk

    • Wellbeing – nurturance, protection, adaptive cultural systems

    • Norms – perception and beliefs conducive to community standards of wellness

    • Stories – transmission and celebration of knowledge

    These indicators directly transfer money into the conditions for life-centered economy.

  • A Multi-Sectoral Bridge

    Indigenous peoples care for most of the planet’s biodiversity, but our work is undervalued and underfunded.

    The Kinship Regenerative Value Index will enable entities of all kinds to fulfill their commitments on the major climate and humanitarian interests of our time - by offering a personalizable and responsive planetary mainframe for investment.

  • Governance & Safeguards

    • Elders, women and two spirit folk hold exclusive authority over sacred assets.

    • An Indigenous Grandmothers Economic Forum in 2026 will grow the network and establish long-term protocols.

    • Quarterly and ad hoc Embassy gatherings at KinHubs keep the system adaptive and community-led.

  • Reciprocity in Action

    • KinMakers are a part of the body and architecture that lets money “remember its responsibilities.” This isn’t a typical fund chasing returns — it’s a living financial commons that turns money back into life, culture, and shared prosperity.

    • Early investors join as KinMakers and co-designers, not investors — helping to shape a global Indigenous-led financing model grounded in reciprocity, care, and belonging.

  • ReImagining Wealth

    When projects succeed — cleaner water, restored forests, stronger community wellbeing — the money converts into shared community value such as KinPact Units, to be leveraged by Guardians and KinMakers alike. No value leaves the commons.
