The Environmental and Climate Justice Fund
First call for
environmental projects

In addition, particular attention will be given to the following initiatives:
• Are marked by a feminist and/or environmentalist and/or inclusive and/or decolonial approach, aiming for greater social justice.
• Involve several sectors.
• Are carried out in partnership and collaboration with different stakeholders.
• Involve populations experiencing several types of oppression at the same time.
The actions selected should focus on adaptive solutions. Here is a non-exhaustive list of the types of actions that could be supported:
