Through education programs, community outreach and strategic campaigns, 7 Directions of Service seeks to mobilize and advocate for Indigenous and historically marginalized communities, who bear the brunt of social and environmental injustices. We carry a responsibility to be a strong voice for the lands, waters, and more-than-human world.
The approach of 7 Directions is intersectional and life-honoring. They recognize that the harms faced under the settler state are not new, and consider their work as part of a legacy of grassroots leaders who have risen up to end state violence against their communities. Every campaign, community project and education program is guided by the 7 Directions teaching, which proclaims the sanctity and vitality of each direction: children, women, men, elders, the earth, the sky (which is also symbolic of culture and the mind) and finally, the direction within.
