Our Why
The driving force behind our impact measurement journey is the need for us to ensure that everything we do at Raven ultimately contributes to the improved well-being of Native American and Indigenous Peoples.
Our ethos:
ALIGNMENT WITH THE UNDRIP
We align our impact measurement processes with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, as a framework for how Raven and our portfolio companies can drive sustainable change to Native American and Indigenous Peoples.
DIVERSE VIEWS
We recognize that impact comes in many forms. We further recognize that everyone is on their own journey in relation to their Native / Indigenous identity. Our approach is one that is respectful, that takes a listening stance, and one that is open to diverse views.
Impact is multi-faceted, and the well-being of Indigenous Peoples and communities are at the core
