Philippines: Southville women strengthen care and solidarity to resist climate catastrophe

 

This country briefer is based on the Climate Justice Feminist Participatory Action Research (CJ FPAR) journey of the Southville urban poor women from 2019 to 2021. Kadamay, the largest alliance of Filipino urban poor and a CJ FPAR partner, worked together with the women in Southville, one of the government’s housing projects in Rizal province. Through CJ FPAR, the Southville women dissected the impacts of climate crises on their lives. They consolidated their demands and take actions in order to realise feminist climate justice for urban poor women, not only in Southville but also in other corners of the country.
