The Climate Crisis is imminent. However, despite the urgency of the crisis, there is still a severe lack of diversity and inclusivity in the climate and conservation sector. Women continue to be marginalized from the political sphere because of gender stereotypes, lack of access, and socio-economic-structural barriers. Tackling this is the organization “She Changes Climate”, with the aim of driving awareness of the crucial role of women in accelerating climate action.
The organization is committed to ensuring women, in all their diversity, are included as active participants in climate leadership and policy-making processes. To achieve this, we are actively campaigning for inclusion and diversity by working closely with governments and collaborating with like-minded organizations to raise awareness of inequalities in climate leadership.
In this episode, I interview the co-founder Bianca Pitt to talk about the challenges and successes she has experienced at She Changes Climate and her vision for the future.
This interview was recorded in January 2023.
