OUR MISSION & VISION
SECURING
INDIGENOUS
GUARDIANSHIP
OF VITAL
ECOSYSTEMS.
14 |
THE WORK WE DO
We work alongside Indigenous
peoples to secure their
guardianship of vital ecosystems.
We understand guardianship as
Indigenous peoples’ right, capacity,
and acceptance of responsibility to
sustain vital natural systems within
their collective territories.
This mission supports our vision
of an Earth where Indigenous
peoples defend and uphold the
world’s thriving forests, oceans and
grasslands; where their wisdom
maintains vast geographies that
underpin the well-being of all
humanity; and where recognition
and support for Indigenous identity
equals that of Nation States and
others in power.
