At GAIA , our mission is to educate, inspire, advocate and create social change. We aim to empower individuals and communities to take meaningful action in the face of global challenges. We support all members of society, regardless of identity, and upholding anti-racist and anti-oppressive values that support populations from diverse backgrounds to promote cultural understanding and acceptance. Through community-based education and organizing, promotion of food security, and climate advocacy, we work to create a more just, resilient, and compassionate world.
We want to create a world where informed and inspired communities lead the way in driving social change, protecting our planet, and uplifting humanity through collective action and compassionate leadership.
GAIA is based in Guelph, Ontario. This place we call Guelph has served as traditional lands and a place of refuge for many peoples over time, but more specifically the Attiwonderonk, and the Haudenosaunee. This land is held as the treaty lands and territory with the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. Guelph lies directly adjacent to the Haldimand Tract and is part of a long-established traditional hunting ground for the Six Nations of the Grand River. Many First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples who have come from across Turtle Island call Guelph home today.
