Wayfinders Circle 2022 Annual Report - Flipbook - Page 3
INTRODUCTION

Leading
the way
Wayfinding has been a way of life shared by the vast majority of
Indigenous Peoples. Today, in a time of unprecedented global
change, these wayfinding skills and practices are more important
than ever. Reciprocal relations with community, deep connection
with Mother Earth, and guardianship of traditional lands and
waters are forms of ancestral knowledge that are transmitted
from one generation to the next. This wayfinding wisdom is a key
to survival as well as resilience as we struggle to maintain
Indigenous Peoples’ identity and self-determination.
The Wayfinders Circle supports and gathers Indigenous guardians
from around the world who protect their lands, waters, and
territories. It is also a learning network dedicated to investing in
Indigenous Wayfinders and sharing possible pathways for human
societies to achieve ecological, social, cultural and spiritual
harmony.
