Climate, Gendered is a news project making it easy to stay up to date on the wide array of gendered impacts linked to issues like proliferating pollution and rising global temperatures — plus the ideas that might make a difference.
We're curating a multigenre, multisectoral body of knowledge — from current events coverage to cutting-edge research — so that cause readers and changemakers around the world can easily access stories and evidence at the intersection of climate, environment, and gender.
These are fields of study that don't always get to be in the same rooms, exchange strategies, integrate funding, and share influence.

At Climate, Gendered, we're focused on delivering clear, concise, credible, and consistent digests as well as original articles that land in subscribers' inboxes with potential solutions and frontline voices, not just doom and gloom.

In addition to closing the communications and coordination gaps between climate and gender justice with practical tools and actionable information, we'll know we've made a difference when thinking about "climate" means thinking about "gender" and vice versa.
