What is Afrocentric climate justice?

We believe climate justice is a combination of social, environmental and climate change justice! 

It means looking to use systemic change to address the challenges faced by people and communities most impacted by social issues, climate change and other environmental challenges. 

Afrocentric climate justice means we are dedicated to socio-environmental and climate solutions for the most impacted communities in Africa. Our work is guided by Africans, people living in Africa, and indigenous knowledge.
