Our Campaigns
Climate Justice & Forests
GFC opposes corporate influence over climate and forest policy and exposes false solutions that harm ecosystems and communities, especially women, youth, and Indigenous Peoples. We defend forests, support community stewardship, and promote rights-based, gender-just approaches to climate mitigation for a fairer, more resilient world.
Gender Justice & Forests
The campaign promotes decolonial, feminist approaches to forest conservation that centre the rights, knowledge, and leadership of women in all their diversity. By supporting inclusive, community-led forest governance and dismantling intersecting systems of oppression, we work to protect forests while reducing gender inequalities and strengthening women’s access to decision-making and resources.
Unsustainable Livestock
GFC’s Unsustainable Livestock Campaign works to challenge factory farming, end harmful incentives, and promote agroecology and plant-rich diets that protect forests, defend rights, and support gender justice.
ETI
Forests and communities are under threat from mining, fossil fuel extraction, mass tourism, and mega-infrastructure projects. GFC’s Extractive Industries, Tourism and Infrastructure Campaign fights to defend rights, protect livelihoods, and stop destructive industries in their tracks.
