Qu’est-ce que la Carte de la Justice Climatique?
La Carte de la justice climatique est une cartographie montrant les organisations et les réseaux basés dans les pays du Sud travaillant sur la justice climatique et la transition juste. Cette cartographie a été produite par Climate Justice - Just Transition Donor Collaborative (CJ-JT), une initiative visant à transférer le pouvoir et les ressources philanthropiques vers ceux qui sont en première ligne de l'injustice climatique et qui ne le font pas encore. ont la part qui leur revient dans l’élaboration des politiques et dont les efforts manquent cruellement de ressources.
La CJ Map est un outil unique qui comprend plus de 1,600+ organisations et réseaux. Il se présente sous la forme d'un wiki open source dont les informations de base sont disponibles en quatre langues : arabe, anglais, français et espagnol.
For more information about how the work of the CJ-JT Donor Collaborative and partners who created the CJ-Map, please access the website: https://climatejusticecollab.org/
Why we did the mapping:
La cartographie a été réalisée par le Justice climatique - Collaboration des Donateurs pour une Transition Juste (CJ-JT en anglais), car de nombreuses études ont montré1 que le financement philanthropique n'atteignait pas les personnes les plus touchées par l'injustice, en particulier celles basées dans les pays du Sud. La cartographie de justice climatique vise à corriger ce déséquilibre en aidant les fondations et les conseillers à trouver rapidement qui travaille sur le terrain.
Comment il a été produit:
The Climate Justice Map is based on many sources of information, including climate justice and just transition networks funded by philanthropy, information by experts working in the field as well as from desktop based research. Entries have also been provided by the CJ-JT Donor Collaborative Climate JEDIs - Fellows working to enhance justice, equity, diversity and inclusion in climate spaces.
The CJ-Map has been sourced from the publicly available information using the description which organisations use to describe themselves and their own focus area and operations. Each organisation featured has been given the opportunity to check their entry. We are grateful to the work of Climate Cardinals for their translation services. This is an important partnership of ours because most climate justice literature and climate campaigning is written and accessible entirely in English which results in systematic barriers to accessing information on climate change.2

Why a Wiki?
Wiki pages are open-access and freely available. As mappings by philanthropy are typically not shared with the field, the Climate Justice Map is deliberately open source with an intent to break down the power dynamics inherent in mapping and consultancy processes with an aim to shift philanthropy away from gatekeeping, secrecy and ad hoc funding.
Wiki pages are collaborative. We hope to continue adding to the organisations included and invite you to add the organisations and networks you know working on climate justice and just transition to help maintain up-to-date information for philanthropy and the field.
We recognise the Climate Justice Map is a work in progress and we welcome your feedback and additional entries to make the Wiki more comprehensive. Please contact us using the form via our website.
Climate Justice Map Research Methodology and FAQs
What is your approach to defining Climate Justice?
In order to break down the inherent power dynamics involved when deciding what is considered climate justice work, we have intentionally not created our own definition. This is because there is no standardised definition of climate justice used or yet recognised by the field.
Instead, our approach is led by the framing(s) of individual organisations who know their work best and that self-define as working on climate justice. In developing our mapping we have drawn on the language organisations use to describe themselves and the areas of work they define as climate justice and just transition.
Other sources include using the 17 Sustainable Development Goals and the many themes of work listed under them. You can search the CJ Map using 270+ key themes and climate injustices. To help you get started with your search we have developed a list of 28 searchable keywords, themes and injustices commonly used by the organisations.
How did you collate the information?
The Climate Justice Map is based on many sources of information, including from recommendations and other mapping efforts, climate justice and just transition networks funded by philanthropy, information by experts working in the field as well as from desktop based research. Entries have also been provided by the CJ-JT Donor Collaborative Climate JEDIs - Fellows working to enhance justice, equity, diversity and inclusion in climate spaces.
The CJ-Map has been sourced from the publicly available information using the description which organisations use to describe themselves and their own focus area and operations. Each organisation featured has been given the opportunity to check their entry.
What type of organisations are eligible to be included in the Climate Justice Map?
Whilst there are many important Global North organisations, we have deliberately chosen to skew our efforts to focus on those working in or based in the Global South. The Climate Justice Map makes visible the considerable number of organisations already working on CJ-JT in the Global South as they have received the least resources from climate philanthropies.
We have mapped across 5 regions that include:
✦ Africa and the Middle East
✦ Asia and Pacific
✦ Latin America and the Caribbean
✦ Organisations that are Global
✦ Select Global North Allies that have regional programmes based in the Global South
Northern allies have been selected carefully for their work supporting Global South efforts.
Organisations must be working in Climate Justice and/or Just Transition: The Climate Justice Map includes 270+ key CJ-JT themes and injustices to choose from. This list is by no means exhaustive.
If you would like to see another theme listed please contact us via our website https://climatejusticecollab.org/contact-us
How do I know if an organisation listed in the Climate Justice Map exists and is credible?
Our mapping is led by word of mouth and the lived experiences of those who are working on the ground. Our team checks if each organisation has a current and active online presence i.e. website, social media account, etc and aims to contact all organisations asking to confirm if the details we have are correct and up to date and to send any improvements.
Why is an organisation not listed?
We recognise the Climate Justice Map is a work in progress and the organisations and networks we have mapped are just a start. We welcome your feedback and additional entries to make the Wiki more comprehensive.
1 Actuellement, moins de 2% de la philanthropie mondiale est destinée à soutenir des organisations travaillant sur l'atténuation du changement climatique, et environ 0,5% à des initiatives environnementales dans les pays du Sud (Edge Funders Alliance, 2022 & One Earth 2023). De la philanthropie qui s'occupe du climat, 95% de celle-ci est accordée à des groupes de défense du climat dirigés majoritairement par des hommes blancs (Solutions Project, 2017) & (Philanthropic Initiative for Racial Justice, 2021) et seulement 0,76% à des mouvements dirigés par des jeunes (Youth Climate Justice Study, 2022).
