COP25 started today in Madrid. FAWCO is represented there by two UN Reps, Ayuska Motha and Stacey Kimmig from AIWC Cologne, who are joined by Joan Evers from local club AWC Madrid. FAWCO is a member of the Women and Gender Constituency (WGC), a coalition of NGOs working together to amplify our advocacy work for gender just climate solutions. Ayuska, Stacey and Joan will join other WGC members in coordinated action and advocacy.
Key demands of the WGC are:
Deliver on a 5-year Lima Work Programme on Gender with a robust Gender Action Plan;
Deliver on ambition, including finance;
Effectively address loss and damage and climate-induced migrations;
Place communities over markets;
Preserve the ocean;
Ensure gender responsive action under the Koroniva Joint Work on Agriculture;
