Guadalupe Banderas
Mexico
“From here, I no longer fly alone; I fly in cooperation, and the act of pausing integrates with that of continuing. From here, conflict becomes a seed, divergence a process, sisterhood an inspiration, and community a method.” Barbara Santos
About Guadalupe
I am a Morelian woman, mother, artist, and independent worker. Since 2014, I have been involved in various collective efforts to defend territories and make visible the violences affecting them.
Beginning in 2020, I became involved with the Theatre of the Oppressed and have since worked to bring this method to social movements I engage with, promoting awareness of gender-based violence both within and beyond territorial defence.

I’m 28-years-old, born on the Gulf of Mexico and raised in the Caribbean. I studied a degree focused on water resources, but I found my community and my path in collective activism, supporting territorial defence in the Yucatán Peninsula from an urban perspective.

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.
Once In A Lifetime

We support rural communities in Nicaragua through our partner CEPAD but we can’t do it without your help. Every penny goes to supporting those most affected by climate change.
