We believe women’s economic empowerment is central to their ability to engage, influence decisions and realize their rights. When women are empowered economically, they invest in their families and communities, spurring economic growth and creating more stable societies. We are therefore, committed to connecting grassroots women to resources and opportunities that secure their livelihoods. These include resources and opportunities that enhance their ability to participate equally in existing markets; increase their access to and control over productive resources (such as land and other natural resources), improve their access to decent work, control over their own time, lives and bodies and access clean energy that improves their health and well-being of the household.

In our climate justice work, we strive to connect grassroots women to organizations, resources and opportunities that better prepare them to adopt to climate change. We are currently developing a data base and pursuing strategic partnerships with organizations working on economic empowerment, climate justice and technology for ease of referrals.
