Fight against Climate Change
Climate Strike in Brussels
The latest IPCC report makes it clear that there is no more time to waste to act against climate change. The lax attitude of many governments has already lead to irreversible effects and damage. The consequences of the climate change are already greater than expected in previous reports.
To make matters worse, the most vulnerable populations in the world are affected the most by the climate crisis. Those who contribute the least to global warming suffer from the consequences. We have to make our voices heard in the fight against Climate change.

Women and girls from all over the world are hit hard by the climate crisis. Due to increasing drought, they often have to travel more dangerous distances. The climate crisis makes the position of women in society very vulnerable.
