Grassroots Global Justice Alliance (GGJ) is an alliance of over 65 member
organizations.

GGJ is organizing to build an agenda for power for working and poor people
and communities of color. We understand that there are important
connections between the local issues we work on and the global context, and
we see ourselves as part of an international movement for global justice.
GGJ focuses on bringing grassroots organizations (GRO) into a long-term
process of relationship building, political alignment and the development
of transformational leadership, particularly for working and poor women and
gender-oppressed people of color. We weave and bridge together US-based GRO
groups and global social movements working for climate justice, gender
justice, an end to war, and a just transition to a new economy that is
better for people and the planet. For more about GGJ, visit our website:
