Description/notes

The Climate Reality Project Brasil, represented by Centro Brasil no Clima since 2016, has the mission to bring about changes in the decarbonization of the Brazilian economy by calling its more than 3,900 leaders to action, increasing the ambition of climate action at all levels, and offering opportunities for continuous learning on approaches and solutions to the climate crisis.

Tools such as climate education, climate justice, land vulnerability analysis, integrated adaptation policies and access to climate finance are key so that frontline communities can experience a different reality. Climate Reality Project Brazil developed a methodology for building Climate Rights Letters in different territories that was a unique movement addressing climate adaptation in favelas, and can be expanded to other territories, where the community speaks for itself and draws their own solutions based on their experience living the impacts of the climate crisis.

The Climate Rights Letters aims to consolidate into one single document the dream of the people who live in a community who envision the possibility of living in a greener, more resilient and adaptive place. The objective is for the letter to be an advocacy instrument for articulation with public, private and civil society sectors to carry out the aforementioned demands.
