Peace and Security

It is very simple: there can be no peace if there is no gender justice or environmental justice.

As a result of human activity driven by capitalism, militarism, patriarchy, and colonialism, climate change and environmental destruction now threaten the very existence of people, animals, and the life-giving ecosystems on which we all depend.

The ecological crisis uniquely impacts women and girls, Indigenous Peoples, and individuals in marginalised situations – driving deeper inequalities and preventing the attainment of human rights, justice, and peace. 

Now more than ever, it is essential to protect the planet. On this page, we invite you to learn more about how WILPF is working for environmental justice and feminist peace. We hope you will join us.
