Gender Just Climate Solutions Awards 2026

About

The Gender Just Climate Solutions Awards 2026 represent an extraordinary global call to action! This initiative, spearheaded by the Women and Gender Constituency, seeks to spotlight and reward the brave, innovative grassroots projects that tackle the climate crisis while simultaneously dismantling gender inequalities. By recognizing that women and marginalized groups are often on the frontlines of climate change, this award celebrates those who don't just survive, but lead through sustainable, gender-responsive solutions. Whether you are working on renewable energy, sustainable agriculture, or water management, these awards provide the platform you deserve.

Winning this award is about more than just the funding; it is about joining a powerful movement of change-makers. It’s an invitation to have your voice heard at the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP), where you can influence global leaders and policy. If your organization is driving a solution that is environmentally sound, socially equitable, and gender-transformative, this is your moment to shine. This award proves that local, gender-just actions are the most effective way to protect our planet and our communities. Diversity is the heart of resilience, and this program is dedicated to ensuring that those bringing real solutions to their communities are seen and supported on a worldwide scale.
