Every year, GAGGA - a global alliance for gender and climate action in which FRIDA is a member - holds the Women and Water campaign: a reminder that women, girls, trans, intersex, and non-binary people are leading gender-just climate solutions to protect water sources from contamination, extraction, and privatization.
The campaign called out financial institutions to divest from false solutions to the climate crisis, like mega-dams and monoculture tree plantations, which violate human rights and private land and water. Instead, the campaign demands climate finance to reinvest in community-led initiatives that address climate change while actively challenging gender inequalities.
