Our Co-Director and Founder @ShaniMangola (on far right in photo) is finishing up exams in his first year of law school in Tanzania. Bahati njema (good luck)! 💫
It will be a historic moment when he becomes the first Hadzabe attorney in TZ #Indigenous #Hadza #lawschool #Tanzania
Thank you for such a strong response @DorsaAmir. The harm of talking about Indigenous peoples as “wild humans” is very real. Thank you for being a friend to Olanakwe Community Fund 💜

Indigenous hunter-gatherers cannot maintain land rights without education and the ability to fight for their rights in the spaces where decisions are being made.
Supporting educational empowerment IS supporting hunter-gatherer land rights & sovereignty.

Who ultimately should direct data decisions and benefit from open data? From an equity standpoint, I hope it’s the communities from whom that data is derived first. 3/3 – at Phoenix, AZ
