Launched in 2016, the Global Alliance for Green and Gender Action (GAGGA) rallies the collective power of women’s rights, gender, environmental and climate justice movements around the world. GAGGA is led by Fondo Centroamericano de Mujeres (FCAM), in cooperation with Mama Cash and Both ENDS. GAGGA involves partners working at local, national, regional and international levels in more than 30 countries across Africa, Asia, Europe (Georgia), Latin America and the Pacific. GAGGA partners include 24 women’s and environmental justice funds, 31 non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and 440 mostly women1-led community-based organisations (CBOs). GAGGA also works with strategic allies 350.org, Global Greengrants Fund, Prospera – The International Network of Women’s Funds and the Women’s Environmental & Development Organization (WEDO).
Since 2021, GAGGA has been part of the Power of Voices Policy Framework of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA), under the theme Climate Mitigation and Adaptation. The following document provides an overview of GAGGA’s progress in the third year of this five-year Strategic Partnership, with our programme ‘Women Leading Climate Action’.
