_GLOBAL SOLIDARITY_
With its globalized impacts, the climate catastrophe necessitates a strengthening of solidarity networks and mutual-aid with and between structurally marginalized, directly impacted and frontline communities. We work to lift-up practices that build grassroots power for transformative change.
“We are organizing The House of the Futures: International Climate Justice Center, to create long-term infrastructure that supports intersectional and international climate justice organizing”.
_We are creating_
- Activist Conference Center: A versatile space with capacity to host meetings, gatherings and conferences for allied organizations including accommodation, meals, meeting rooms, and logistical support for gatherings of up to 40 participants. This service will be offered both free-of-charge and on a sliding pay-scale to support movements and the financial autonomy of the project.
- Observatory of Environmental Defenders: Support for initiatives by defenders and other existing organizations to investigate, report and transmit human rights and environmental violations, as well as organize awareness campaigns and conflict mapping.
- House of defenders: Expansion of existing projects to provide support and emergency housing to Environmental Defenders at risk.
- Activists-in-Residence + Artivists-in-Residence program: Multi-month exchanges for activists and artivists to promote exchange and network creation between local and international movements and to offer spaces of rest and recovery.
- Movement Research Support: A project to link academics with activist groups in order to provide free research to climate justice projects.
The House of the Futures is part of a growing international network of place-based projects that are building networked infrastructures for long-term societal transformation.
