CLIMATE JUSTICE IS HEALTH JUSTICE. GENDER JUSTICE. ECONOMIC JUSTICE.
ACHCGA is an African women-led organization connecting climate justice, resilient health systems, gender equality, SRHR and climate finance to advance locally led solutions and influence the policies and resources shaping Africa’s climate future
ONE CRISIS. MANY CONSEQUENCES.
ACHCGA connects climate justice, health, gender justice and climate finance to ensure that women, young people and frontline communities have the evidence, agency and resources to shape decisions affecting their lives and futures.
WE MUST ACT NOW
The climate crisis is already here. The decisions we make today will shape the lives of generations to come.
Countdown to COP31

We must not wait for another crisis to act
WHO WE ARE
The African Center for Health, Climate & Gender Justice Alliance (ACHCGA) is an African women-led organisation advancing climate justice, gender equality, resilient health systems and Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) across Africa.
We work with women, girls, young people and frontline communities experiencing the greatest impacts of climate change but with the least power over the decisions and resources shaping their lives.
THE PROBLEM WE ARE ADDRESSING
Climate change is increasingly becoming a multiplier of existing inequalities. For women and girls, climate shocks can mean disrupted access to health and SRHR services, increased unpaid care work, loss of livelihoods, displacement, heightened exposure to gender-based violence and reduced participation in decisions about public resources.
Yet climate finance and climate policy are still too often disconnected from the realities of health, gender equality and community needs. ACHCGA works to close this gap.
