Climate Justice and Equity Mobile Banner

Climate change does not affect all communities equally. Children and families facing economic distress, geographic vulnerability, or limited access to services are often exposed to higher risks and fewer recovery options. Addressing climate resilience therefore requires a focus on equity, inclusion, and accountability.

ChildFund India’s Climate Justice and Equity program works to strengthen systems that ensure climate responses are inclusive, rights-based, and aligned with the needs of children and vulnerable communities.
