At COP30 in Belém, Brazil, The Global Alliance For Green And Gender Action (GAGGA) and Both ENDS presented a special film project we poured into earlier this year. This are the stories of 4 communities from Brazil, Kenya, Fiji, and Nepal who are seeking true gender-just climate solutions at the grassroots level. The film features 4 spoken languages and is available in English, French, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese subtitles.

"We walk cracked earth. We draw water from vanishing rivers. And still, hands rebuild. Across forests in Nepal, flooded fields in Fiji, quilombola villages in the Amazon, and drought-hardened lands in Kenya, women, girls, trans, intersex, and non-binary people from rural, Indigenous, Black and Afro-descendant communities trace the shape of another future. They hold water like memory, tenderly, persistently. They heal, teach, resist, and root.

 

This film follows their movements, their voices, their everyday acts of defiance. It listens where official reports stay silent. It lingers where real solutions live—by the rivers, in collective kitchens, beneath trees that still stand. It is a love letter to those holding the world together, and a long breath against disappearance."
