The Gaia Foundation

Who we are

The Gaia Foundation is passionate about regenerating cultural and biological diversity, and restoring a respectful relationship with the Earth. Together with long-term partners in Africa, South America, Asia and Europe, we work with local communities to secure land, seed, food and water sovereignty. By reviving indigenous knowledge and protecting sacred natural sites, local self-governance is strengthened. This enables communities to become more resilient to climate change and the industrial processes which have caused the many crises we now face.

Gaia makes a long-term commitment with our partners to address the root causes of today's most pressing ecological, social and economic injustices. We are a small, flexible team, which enables us to read and respond quickly to emerging issues and opportunities for change.
