Description/notes
WECF are a nonprofit network dedicated to a gender-just and healthy planet for all.
We believe that a sustainable future and environment need holistic solutions reflecting the lives of people on the ground. We believe in feminist solutions based on our partners’ visions and needs. That is why we work on transformative gender equality and women’s human rights in interconnection with climate justice, sustainable energy & chemicals, less toxic waste, and safe water & sanitation for all.
WECF coordinates the ‘Gender Just Climate Solutions’ award and mentoring programme on behalf of the Women’s Major Group to UNFCCC.
