Climate change increases the risk for women and girls to be subjected to violence and sexual abuse, more girls will be forced to leave school and women’s livelihoods will be threatened. At the same time, girls and women’s influence and participation in climate work is limited. Sport is a confirmed method for reaching out and addressing social challenges and such as highlighting the link between climate change and gender equality. However, there is a lack of support and practical tools for grassroots organizations on how to use physical activity and play to educate and act on climate change from a gender perspective.

In this project, Coaches Across Continents Ldt seeks to give female role models and leaders the right tools such as play, movement and sports to combat the challenges posed by climate change.

The project is supported with SEK 2 170 000.
