[PUBLIC] When Sisters Speak: Black Femme Demands for Transformative Climate Justice

  • Register to see address (map)

Black women and femmes have always led with resistance, care, and imagination for just futures. When Sisters Speak brings together grassroots leaders, climate justice advocates, and allies to uplift the urgent demands of Black femme communities in shaping transformative climate policy. This session goes beyond dialogue! Participants will engage directly with the Global Afro-Descendant Policy Platform, reviewing sections on Gender Justice line by line and providing feedback to ensure that Black femme priorities and lived experiences are reflected. Together, we will sharpen our collective demands, develop strategies to confront extractive systems, and advance climate solutions grounded in justice, healing, and liberation. We will also have Solidarity sisters and allies from the Pacific and Puerto Rico at the frontlines of the fight for gender, land and climate justice share their stories. Interpretation will be available in French, Spanish, and Portuguese. Heavy hors d’oeuvres will be served.
