We Women Are Water – Call To Action To Support And Finance Gender Just Climate Action
Gender just climate action and solutions are in urgent need of your support
Women, girls, trans, intersex, and non-binary people from local and Indigenous communities are at the forefront of fighting for climate and environmental justice against false climate solutions. The time is now to resource the transformative climate solutions led by women, girls, inter, non-binary and trans people and stop investment in false climate solutions. Commit your support to uphold human rights and invest in women’s leadership in gender-just climate solutions!

The annual We Women are Water Campaign highlights gender-just climate solutions from the GAGGA network; from advancing just and sustainable energy practices at the community level, to sustainable, regenerative, and circular production systems such as agroecology, to holding international institutions, corporations, governments and investors involved in any harmful projects or policies to account. Gender-just climate solutions, a term that describes the rights-based, bottom-up and people-centred approaches that put gender justice and democracy at the centre of climate action, and therefore seek to address the root causes of climate injustice and ensure well-being and protection of communities and the leaders who keep movements alive.
These transformative initiatives need support and resources, while false climate solutions, privatization of water resources, pollution from extractive industries and human rights violations must stop immediately, and Women Environmental Human Rights Defenders need to be protected.
Witness the transformative power of Women, Afro-descendant, and Indigenous led communities as they fight for climate and environmental justice. Narrated by women from the affected communities themselves, the We Women Are Water Campaign 2024 presents a series of videos to raise awareness on the action of women around the globe for climate and environmental justice.
