Climate change, one of most serious problems facing the world today, will have disastrous consequences for everyone, and especially for women. What is most tragic is that women will also suffer especially from the false solutions for climate change that are being negotiated internationally.

On the occasion of International Women’s Day we invite you to reflect on these issues and to participate in the following actions:

Watch and share the video " Women and Climate Change" and read and sign the position on Women and REDD

 

  • Invitation to sign the position on Women and REDD
    REDD+ as currently designed will contribute to a global land grab of communities' and Indigenous Peoples' lands and territories,which will particularly affect women, states a position signed by women and organizations that denounces REDD as another false solution for climate change.
