EJCA-Directory
African women and gender diverse persons do inspirational work every day and it is imperative to make recognition of their continuous contribution in the pursuit of gender equality. This directory has been created as an immediate entry point to easily locate and draw on the work of African women and gender diverse persons working in the area of climate and environmental justice. It is hoped that this platform will act as a space where a community of African women and gender diverse persons working on these issues can find each other and that it will create a more structured base upon which to build a robust field of feminist climate and environmental justice actors across the continent.
