Our Work

Focus Areas

Defending Environmental Justice

Why defend environmental justice?

The environment in most parts of the Global South has been affected, mostly by population growth, policies that cause environmental injustice and the lack of efficiency by local authorities to provide essential services and amenities especially to poorer and working class sections of the populace. Resultant problems range from lack of access to water, waste collection and management as well as the development of private construction projects on wetlands and green spaces. In rural areas, communities face the ever growing threat of land grabbing, food insecurity, violence in the face of expanding capitalist projects in mining, urbanisation and mono-culture farming.

Advocates4Earth’s goal is to achieve the adequate reform and protection of environmental laws, policies and justice for people and communities in the Global South
