Sobre nosotros

GAGGA, launched in 2016 by the Fondo Centroamericano de Mujeres (FCAM), based in Costa Rica, in collaboration with Mama Cash and Both ENDS, both based in the Netherlands, is a vibrant and diverse network involving women’s funds, environmental justice funds, NGOs, and women-led community-based organisations, joining forces to strengthen the nexus of women’s rights, gender, climate, and environmental justice at local, national, and regional levels in Africa, Asia, the Pacific, Latin America, Europe and globally. We believe that women-led community-based organizations (CBOs) are in the best position to propose solutions and alternatives to the problems they face because they know the local landscape, language, culture and challenges of their constituencies. However, they often face limited access to funding and advocacy spaces. That’s where GAGGA comes in. GAGGA’s network consists of the following actors based in the Global South: - Women-led CBOs - National, regional and global environmental justice and women’s funds - National, regional and global NGOs As with CBOs or grassroots groups, environmental justice and women’s funds emerge from the movements they seek to support. This means they are well-connected to and have an expert understanding of the needs and opportunities of the communities they serve, and are accountable to them. They also provide grassroots groups with the kind of flexible support and multi-year funding they need to be successful. This is why we believe it’s critical to channel resources through these funds. In the GAGGA model, funds and NGOs provide women-led CBOs with technical and legal support, thematic expertise and funding, while further enhancing their connections with gender-just environmental movements. All GAGGA actors work together in a multi-level, cross-movement collaboration to strengthen movements, link and learn from each other, and lobby and advocate, with an emphasis on participatory processes and shared leadership.
