Climate Justice & GESI

Overview
Climate impacts hit hardest among women, youth, indigenous peoples, and people with disabilities. Justice and equity must be central to climate-health solutions.

We ensure that no one is left behind in the climate-health movement.

✅ Inclusive Research & Data

We collect disaggregated data by gender, age, disability, and ethnicity to reveal hidden inequalities.

✅ Community-Led Dialogues

We host listening sessions with marginalized groups to understand their unique challenges and solutions.

✅ GESI Integration in Programs

We train all staff and partners to mainstream GESI in WASH, livelihoods, health, and communication projects.

✅ Advocacy for Policy Change

We work with governments to adopt inclusive climate policies that recognize the rights and leadership of marginalized communities.

“As a woman with a disability, I was never asked about climate plans. Now I’m on the county task force.”
— Halima Abdi, Mandera

• 100+ women with disabilities trained as climate leaders

🌱 Our Approach: Justice as Resilience

Inclusive solutions are more sustainable, more innovative, and more effective.

Through storytelling, participatory theater, and media campaigns, we:

• Challenge discrimination
• Elevate underrepresented voices
• Build solidarity across communities

“When a disabled woman leads a flood preparedness meeting, the whole community becomes more resilient.”
