The Foundation for Traditional Religions (acronym: FTR; in Russian: Фонд Традиционных Религий, ФТР) is an organisation for the protection and promotion of "traditional religions" in Russia, namely Rodnovery (Slavic Native Faith), other modern Paganisms, and Siberian shamanisms.^[1] It was founded in 2019 by Evgeny Alekseyevich Nechkasov, leader of the Siberian Heathen community Svarte Aske. The Foundation ceased operations in March 2022, as new media laws in Russia made it impossible and unsafe for the FTR to continue operating in the country.
