Declaración del Día Internacional de la Mujer Trabajadora 2026
Summary
The statement asserts that gender inequality is reinforced by patriarchy, colonialism, and corporate power, which exacerbate the impacts of environmental destruction on women. It calls for global action to protect environmental defenders, end militarization, and invest in universal care systems to achieve a just transition and systemic change.
Key insights
- Environmental degradation disproportionately affects women, who must travel further for water and food and bear the brunt of poverty and displacement when ecosystems are destroyed.
- Gender justice is intrinsically linked to climate justice, land rights, and economic justice, meaning environmental justice cannot be achieved without addressing gender inequality and the global structures that sustain exploitation.
- Women and gender diversities are at the forefront of resistance against the exploitation of land and bodies, acting as environmental defenders and grassroots activists fighting for systemic change.
- The document calls for international action to protect human rights defenders, end policies of militarization and genocide, ensure access to land and resources, and invest in universal public services and care systems.
