CBM in Action

Funding Fairer Futures

Funding Fairer Futures is a dynamic and exciting four-year project that aims to transform the climate justice space by making sure those that are affected the most by climate change are central to the discussion space about a just transition and climate advocacy.

The project unites a vibrant network of changemakers across Europe and the Global South, focusing on disability equality and inclusive gender-transformative climate justice. Targeting countries within the EU, Western Balkans, Turkey, and select countries in Asia, Africa, and the Pacific Islands, the initiative aims to empower over 300 civil society organisations. These groups will engage in awareness-raising, capacity-building, advocacy, and campaigning, aiming to mobilise at least 2 million people to act for a sustainable and equitable future.

CBM Ireland, building on the momentum of the CBM Global’s Climate Justice and Advocacy work, will fund collective movements of disabled people in the Global South. These will be able to effectively engage with the processes and policy making developments so that DPOs/OPDs are meaningfully engaged and consulted in the creation, implementation and oversight of climate and social justice policies.

Some of the activities funded can be one or a combination of the following:

-          capacity-building on climate action

-          Evidence gathering for effective advocacy to support advocacy for climate justice,

-          Support for social and political engagement to enhance their representation,

-          Support for networking and partnership building (Global South-Global North) and with relevant climate networks such as CAN national or regional nodes.
