Justice & Equity

identifying where habits, language, or worldview reduce other beings to roles or resources; reflecting on inherited beliefs about superiority, hierarchy, and control; noticing when the pain, intelligence, or resistance of other beings is dismissed as irrational, aggressive, or unimportant; working to dismantle anthropocentric or colonial patterns in how we define intelligence, purpose, or value.

integrating overlooked humans, species, ecosystems, or life forms into care, protection, and representation efforts; countering fear- or disgust-based narratives about certain animals, microbes, or wild spaces; honouring invisible systems like soil networks, decay, or seasonal change as vital parts of community; making space for different ways of expressing emotion, need, or agency across species, roles, and cultural expectations.

mapping whose voices are missing and whose knowledge is overlooked across species, cultures, and geographies; identifying benefits derived from extractive or colonial systems; recognising and interrupting patterns of dismissal or domination in team culture or cross-species relationships; making space for marginalised perspectives, and honouring the leadership and lived expertise of those most affected by structural injustice - human and Earth other; reviewing team composition, funding flows, or decision-making patterns to address structural privilege; recognising how ecological data, land use rights, or stakeholder engagement practices reflect power imbalances; aligning internal culture with justice-based commitments.

sharing leadership and resources with marginalised human and more-than-human communities; recognising and supporting the self-determination of indigenous and land-connected peoples; including non-human kin in advisory roles, stakeholder engagement, or collaborative planning; funding land rematriation, ecosystem restoration, or reparative practices led by those most impacted; embedding care, consent, and accountability in cross-species and cross-cultural relationships; partnering with frontline or indigenous organisations to shift funding or governance influence; opening decision-making spaces to include ecological or community stewards; embedding reparative procurement or hiring practices into institutional policy.

using language and protocols that affirm the personhood and sovereignty of land, waters, and other beings; publicly supporting the legal recognition of more-than-human rights through declarations, policies, or alliances; including non-human kin in stakeholder frameworks; aligning with indigenous and biocultural legal systems that recognise the personhood, agency and rights of more-than-human life.

reviewing and redesigning strategies, supply chains, procurement, and investment policies to identify and end patterns of injustice, extraction, or environmental harm; shifting investments, purchasing, or authority toward regenerative, equitable, and community-owned options; carrying out justice-based impact assessments on major decisions; prioritising actions that repair historical harm and restore lands, ecosystems, or displaced communities; adopting policies aligned with the rights of nature; supporting demarketisation (e.g. removing essential resources like water or seeds from commercial markets), rematriation, and collaborative governance that reflect multispecies accountability and ecological interdependence.

Supporting and sourcing from farms where ecosystem regeneration is central and non-human animals can roam, socialise, stay with their kin and express natural behaviours; adapting activities to minimise harm to local species; replacing activities and materials that rely on displacement, habitat destruction, confinement, or toxic interventions with ones that respect non-human autonomy, rights, and ecological relationships; resisting land use or enclosures that displace wild kin or degrade ecosystems; restoring, or supporting the restoration of river flows, connected habitars, seed diversity, pollinator habitats and other regeneration efforts; aligning policies, partnerships, or digital infrastructures with the freedom and wellbeing of more-than-human communities.

opposing factory farming, forced labour, and economic systems that trap humans, other animals, flora, funga, microbes and land in exploitative conditions; refusing business or organisational models that require constant extraction from land, bodies, or ecosystems to function; replacing structures that strip away real alternatives for survival or dignity with ones rooted in mutual care and shared sovereignty.

supporting indigenous, land-connected, or off-grid communities living in kinship with all life; protecting or reinstating governance and livelihoods that uphold biocultural diversity beyond state control; resourcing regenerative food systems, cooperatives, or community currencies that offer real alternatives to extractive models; creating time and space within teams or institutions for dreaming, prototyping, and departing from dominant norms; defending the legitimacy and sovereignty of more-than-human communities choosing to live kincentrically, without forcing assimilation or compliance.
