Buddsoddi mewn treftadaeth o gymunedau ethnig amrywiol

A group of people create artwork at a table covered in flowers

Mae treftadaeth yn perthyn i bob un ohonom - a dyna pam rydym am helpu i adrodd straeon pawb.

Yng Nghronfa Treftadaeth y Loteri Genedlaethol, rydym yn cefnogi pob math o brosiectau sy'n archwilio ac yn dathlu treftadaeth o gymunedau ethnig amrywiol.

Rydym hefyd am helpu'r sector ei hun i adlewyrchu poblogaeth y DU yn well.

Y termau rydym yn eu defnyddio

Mae rhai o'r termau rydyn ni'n eu defnyddio yn cynnwys:

cymunedau ethnig amrywiol. Yn yr Alban rydym yn defnyddio MECC (cymuned lleiafrifoedd ethnig a diwylliannol). Rydym wedi diwygio ein defnydd o'r term BAME (Du, Asiaidd ac Ethnig Lleiafrifol).
LGBTQ+ (hunaniaethau lesbiaidd, hoyw, deurywiol, trawsryweddol, cwiar a hunaniaethau eraill)
Cymunedau Sipsiwn, Roma a Theithwyr i ddisgrifio amrywiaeth o grwpiau ethnig neu bobl â ffyrdd crwydrol o fyw nad ydynt o ethnigrwydd penodol

Rydyn ni'n defnyddio'r termau hyn oherwydd ein bod yn credu eu bod yn cael eu deall yn eang. Gall hunaniaethau fod yn gymhleth ac yn rhyngblethol, ac rydym hefyd yn ymwybodol y gallai llawer o'r termau hyn deimlo'n annigonol neu'n gyfyngol. Rydyn ni'n cadw'r iaith rydyn ni'n ei defnyddio'n gyson dan adolygiad.

Mis Hanes Pobl Dduon

Yn ystod Mis Hanes Pobl Dduon rydym yn arddangos rhai o'r prosiectau anhygoel a ariannwyd gennym sy'n annog pobl i gymryd rhan mewn dysgu am dreftadaeth pobl dduon a'i rhannu. Porwch ein casgliad o brosiectau treftadaeth pobl dduon a lleisiau pobl dduon isod.

Mynnwch ysbrydoliaeth ar gyfer eich prosiect

Mynnwch ysbrydoliaeth gan y prosiectau isod a darganfod mwy am wneud cais am ein hariannu.
