OUR PILLARS
Our mission is rooted in four guiding pillars--mutual aid, climate justice, Indigenous leadership, and global advocacy—that drive our commitment to uplifting Indigenous communities, defending land and sovereignty, and building a just future for generations to come.
𓃮 Mutual aid: At the heart of Earth Daughters is a commitment to mutual aid—community-based solidarity that moves beyond charity. In times of crisis, they organize rapid, grassroots responses to meet immediate needs, such as housing, food, and healthcare. Mutual aid for Earth Daughters is a practice of collective care, trust, and resource-sharing, especially in the wake of natural disasters and systemic neglect. 𓃮 Climate justice: Earth Daughters approaches climate change not just as an environmental issue, but as a matter of justice. They focus on the unequal impacts of climate disruption on Indigenous and marginalized communities, working to address root causes like colonialism, extraction, and displacement. Their climate justice work centers community resilience, land stewardship, and equitable recovery from climate-related disasters 𓃮 Indigenous leadership: Earth Daughters is guided by Indigenous knowledge, leadership, and sovereignty. Rather than speaking for communities, they follow the lead of Indigenous women, elders, and land defenders who hold deep ancestral ties to the land. This principle shapes their priorities, strategies, and vision, ensuring that solutions come from those most impacted and most equipped to guide them. 𓃮 Global advocacy: Earth Daughters connects local struggles to global movements. They work to amplify Indigenous voices on international platforms, challenge extractive systems, and influence policy through cross-border solidarity. Their global advocacy elevates grassroots wisdom and demands systemic change—from climate finance to land rights—on a global scale. |
