The Global Alliance for Green and Gender Action organises a side event to present our commitment to support, finance and promote locally rooted, gender-just climate and water solutions within the Water Action Agenda, and invite and inspire other stakeholders to join this commitment.

During the side event inspiring examples of such solutions will be presented by local women from Nepal, Kenya, Paraguay, Mexico and Nigeria*, followed by an interactive dialogue with government representatives and philanthropic donors on the best ways to support and resource them.

This side event will be co-hosted by the Government of Chile, and Women Engage in a Common Future (WECF). The session will have English-Spanish translation available.

* Some of their stories will be featured in short videos, narrated by the women from the communities themselves. These videos will be officially launched on March 15th, as part of GAGGA’s annual We Women are Water Campaign
