Do you want to learn how to effectively fight for women’s rights and climate justice? And meet like-minded people in the process?

Join the Climate Justice Summer School! And learn:

• How to find feminist solutions to the global climate crisis.

• How to organise a successful action for justice.

• How to get politicians’ attention and how to transform that into effective lobbying strategies.

• So much more!

“Climate change does not discriminate, we will all be affected.” True or not true?

Not true. Women are hit so much harder by the climate crisis than men. They are 14 times more likely to die during a climate disaster, and 80 percent of all climate refugees are women. Yet, politicians are barely moving into action to stop this rapidly unfolding disaster. So we will need increase the pressure!

Join the Climate Justice Summer School and learn how to make decision makers listen. Together we will make that difference! The Summer School has no charge, all it costs is your time and motivation!

Please note: you can no longer sign up to the 2022 Climate Justice Summer School. Thanks to all who signed up and are fighting for justice! Keep an eye on this page to find out when you can sign up for next year’s Climate Justice Summer School.
