Supporting Women-Led Climate Solutions

To mark International Women’s Day, this week’s episode focuses on an exciting new initiative that WWF is involved with to advance women- and community-led solutions to climate challenges. It’s an outgrowth of an alliance that WWF has with CARE, the global development organization that works to address poverty and hunger, with a focus on gender equality. Hear from Cheryl Margoluis, Executive Director of the CARE-WWF Alliance, about how these two organizations first came together (1:33), why the Alliance decided to put women and girls at the center of their work (8:18), and how its latest initiative, Sowing Change, aims to help establish women-led livelihoods that also contribute to local climate solutions (10:52).
