Our Work Is To Listen & Share

Our Work Is To
Listen & Share

At CKC, we learn directly from women and marginalized communities living with and responding to climate change. While official reports document the science, we share the stories of people taking action through climate-resilient farming and fishing, renewable energy, traditional ecological knowledge, resilient housing, environmental monitoring, education, and health research

what we do

The Climate Knowledge Collective (CKC) conducts oral histories with women in marginalized communities around the world who develop practical solutions to climate change.
