“Climate work on this coast does not happen without the women who manage the land.”

The Connection

Climate Justice Is Gender Justice

Women bear the heaviest burden of environmental degradation — walking further for water, farming depleted soil, breathing indoor smoke daily. But they are also the most effective environmental agents when given the chance to lead.

Reduce

indoor air pollution for women cooking over open fires

Access

clean water closer to home, freeing girls for school

Restore

degraded land through women-led reforestation

Power

homes with solar energy, ending energy poverty
