Braided Justice publication on climate and legal justice

Braided Justice

2025
This publication explores how legal empowerment work can account for gender and power dynamics when advancing land, environmental, and climate (LEC) justice. The strategies and stories within are drawn from a learning exchange that brought together 15 organizations from around the world — all members of the Grassroots Justice Network. The learning exchange was a collaboration between Recrear, Namati, the Grassroots Justice Network, and the Zimbabwe Environmental Law Association (ZELA). Over the course of 4 months, our group met in four virtual sessions and one week-long in-person gathering in Zimbabwe. Recrear synthesized the learning in the publication ‘Braided Justice: Gender Transformative Approaches to Legal Empowerment for Land, Environmental, and Climate Justice’ as well as designed its equivalent online course for the Grassroots Justice Network members of nearly 18,000 legal empowerment organizations.
