About Ale

I am a woman of Yucatecan maize, a young Mexican activist and feminist dedicated to defending the land. I am constantly in awe of, and learning from, nature and that’s why I studied Natural Resource Management and became involved in campaigns to protect it. This also led me to connect and organise with other women.

I enjoy engaging with the land, meeting new people, and learning from them. Currently, I manage community projects focused on the social and solidarity economy (prioritising people and the environment over profit) alongside the organisation Yomol A’tel. At times, I am also a researcher, cyclist, embroiderer, agroecologist, painter, and more.

Climate Justice

Sinai Gómez Mexico

I am a woman of fire, a city dweller with ancestral Mayan roots, and a spectator of the development of the city of Mérida. Known as Sinai, I grew up playing in the streets of my city, a woman who fights because I know that other realities are possible.

Climate Justice

Vanessa Villamonte Panama

I am a woman passionate about nature, convinced that every corner of the planet is sacred. I grew up in the Darién province, known by many as the “heart of the universe” and the “lungs of Central America.” A place where each tree tells a story, and every ray of sunlight caresses the earth. From a young age, I learned to listen to the whisper of the wind and absorb the wisdom of the Indigenous women in our communities regarding our environment.

Climate Justice

Climate change is a justice issue

Those who have the least political and economic power, and the least responsibility for the changing climate, are affected the most.

CEPAD

We partner with CEPAD in Nicaragua to empower seven communities in Teustepe with the skills, knowledge and community resilience required to address their own problems.
