A green circular logo reads Global Afro-Descendant Climate Justice Collaborative over a background of stacked traditional African drums. The center features an abstract African-inspired symbol.

Our first week in Sharm El Sheikh Egypt has been full of powerful moments and connections with the movement as we organize for climate justice. This has been an amazing journey for our team and we hope that we are able to connect you to the global afrodescendant experience at COP27.
