Women for Forests and Future Generations: Defending Communities from Pandemics and Climate Chaos

Please be invited to join the Women’s Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN) on Thursday, August 27 for our upcoming dialogue, “Women for Forests and Future Generations: Defending Communities from Pandemics and Climate Chaos”. This session is part of our ongoing WECAN Advocacy and Solutions Series, “A Just and Healthy World is Possible“.

Global forests are on the brink of ecological catastrophe and we must continue to take an unwavering stand to protect them. Record setting fire seasons, deforestation, and industrial-scale logging, mining and extraction are destroying irreplaceable ecosystems and driving further climate chaos. In the face of violence against land defenders, the coronavirus, and forest destruction, diverse groups of women are rising to defend forests worldwide. During this dynamic discussion, women and femmes from different regions globally will unite to share stories, lessons, and calls to action from the field as they stand for global forests, their communities, and the web of life. Learn more about this vital interactive discussion and how to participate down below.
