The Outdoorist Oath
What is it?
The Oath is
— An educational model!
— And a commitment!
— And a learning community!
YES!
At its heart, The Oath is an educational model that wraps up in an action-based commitment for planet, inclusion, and adventure. But what happens after is also part of The Oath, and that is a community of outdoorists dedicated to learning and unlearning, united by their love for adventure however each of them defines it.
—What do outdoorists commit to after taking the free Oath Workshop?
PLANET
COMMITMENT 1: I acknowledge that climate change is real and this planet needs allies. Therefore, I will take action for our planet and advocate for environmental justice.
INCLUSION
COMMITMENT 2: I acknowledge that systemic oppression is real and that hatred, discrimination, and biases marginalize people. I will actively work to ally all people in the outdoor community.
ADVENTURE
COMMITMENT 3: I acknowledge adventure looks and feels different for everyone. I will support a connection to the outdoors for everyone beyond what adventure means to me.
The Oath (for short) was created for YOU. Because we firmly believe that we, outdoorists, hold the power and privilege to create the outdoors we want to be a part of.
