Converging with Urgency at the COP27 Climate Summit

November 6 to 18, Grassroots staff joined social movement partners, allies, and others from across the globe for the COP27 UN climate summit in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. Peasant, Indigenous, and feminist movements challenged false solutions and greenwashing at the conference while offering up real solutions coming from those most impacted by the climate crisis.

Grassroots International was there at COP in several capacities. We accompanied the delegations of movement partners whose participation at COP we had funded, and we connected and collaborated with a host of other partners and allies on communications, advocacy, relationship building, and more.

Read insights from movements and see powerful pictures taken on the ground at COP27.
