Roots of Resilience: On the Frontlines of Climate Justice
In our new podcast, Roots of Resilience, the Global Forest Coalition seeks to demystify discussion around false solutions to climate change by talking to those on the frontlines of climate justice.
Each episode of Roots of Resilience features voices, stories, experiences, and policy recommendations from the groups and communities defending the rights of women and Indigenous peoples and local communities upholding and elevating gender-just, rights-based, socially equitable, and real solutions to biodiversity loss, deforestation and climate change.
