Updated 19 March 2019

According to Urban Dictionary, the word 'badass' is: "1. A general term used to describe behaviour that is fearless, authentic, compassionate, and ethical. 2. Well above the social standard for 'normal' behaviour." It's also a gender neutral term, which I rate.

What does climate breakdown have to do with our work on migration?

Updated 16 May 2019

Much of our current political discourse engages with climate change and migration each in isolation. This deflects the necessary conversations around power, distribution of resources and justice. It also divides our efforts around creating a peaceful and just world.

Updated 7 October 2019

It often seems as if national politics is all that matters. With headlines dominated by national and international issues, it's easy to forget how much change actually happens at the local level.

Updated 3 November 2022

The next chapter in the struggle for loss and damage finance is about to take place in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt.

As a membership organisation, it offers much more than a residential space but that's what we needed as we gathered together in warm May sunshine.

'Solidarity' is a term that is often used in conversations around climate and social justice. We send our solidarity to those suffering on the climate frontline in the Global South, to those who are displaced by extreme weather events and to those protesting fossil fuels projects that will devastate their local environment.
