The First Conference on Transitioning Away from Fo

The First Conference on Transitioning Away from Fossil Fuels has closed in Santa Marta. And whatever was agreed inside those halls, one thing is clear: the work is only beginning.
History is not made by declarations. It is made by what follows them. COP30 agreed to transition away from fossil fuels — but planned fossil fuel production in 2030 still far exceeds what is compatible with 1.5°C. Countries continue to approve new oil, gas and coal projects. Investment in upstream oil and gas has risen, not fallen.
The gap between commitment and action is where frontline communities pay the price.
@gagga_alliance will be watching what comes out of Santa Marta and holding it to the standard our partners and the communities we work with deserve. That means:
→ Binding timelines, not voluntary pledges
→ Climate finance that reaches women-led, community-based organisations directly
→ FPIC as a non-negotiable safeguard for all transition projects
→ An end to fossil gas being promoted as a "transition fuel"
→ Genuine investment in real alternatives such as feminist agroecology, commons governance and community-owned energy
The fossil fuel phase-out is inevitable. A feminist, locally-led, commons-based just transition is not inevitable. It must be fought for in every conference, every policy, every funding decision.

As the First Conference on Transitioning Away from

As the First Conference on Transitioning Away from Fossil Fuels heads into its final day, let's talk about one of the most violated principles in the green transition: Free, Prior and Informed Consent.
FPIC is a legal right. It is enshrined in international human rights frameworks, national legislation across many countries, and the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. It means communities must be consulted — fully, freely, before decisions are made — and must have the genuine power to say no.
In practice? The Strategic Environmental Assessment for the Boegoebaai green hydrogen project in South Africa excluded the directly affected Indigenous communities entirely. The Makuutu rare earths project in Uganda proceeded despite insufficient evidence of adequate consultation — with women specifically excluded from decision-making processes.
This is not an exception. It is a pattern.
The Right to Say No is not anti-transition. It is pro-justice. Communities who can say no can also define what yes looks like — community-owned energy, protected land, livelihoods intact, cultural heritage respected.
Any transition framework that bypasses consent is not just. And any finance that funds it is complicit.
Delegations in Santa Marta must commit to binding FPIC requirements across all transition-related projects — mining, renewables, green hydrogen, conservation. No exceptions.

Amid the negotiations in Santa Marta, it's easy to

Amid the negotiations in Santa Marta, it's easy to lose sight of something crucial: the alternatives to extractive development are not theoretical. They exist. They work. And they are being built, right now, by women, Indigenous communities and frontline organisations around the world.
In Paraguay, CONAMURI's feminist agroecology schools train women across 10 Indigenous communities in food sovereignty, native seed governance and ecological stewardship. Their Semilla Róga (House of Seeds) protects and exchanges native seeds — a living commons.
In Zambia, Women Environs Zambia has engaged 600 rural women farmers in Indigenous seed multiplication across eight districts, providing affordable alternatives to costly commercial seeds and building community food resilience from the ground up.
In Nigeria's Niger Delta, devastated by decades of oil extraction, the League of Queens International Empowerment has planted over 2,000 trees, built women-led climate action groups, and engaged government ministries on gender-responsive climate policy.
These are post-extractive pathways. They integrate food sovereignty, ecosystem restoration, community land governance and gender justice.
What they need is not more study. They need funding. Political recognition. And a just transition framework that centres them — not as beneficiaries, but as leaders.

Una invitación a financiar soluciones climáticas allí donde surgen. 🌎
Las soluciones climáticas más eficaces ya existen: están arraigadas en las comunidades, moldeadas por la experiencia vivida y lideradas por las personas más afectadas.
Pero, con demasiada frecuencia, carecen de la financiación necesaria.
Desde Ñeque, junto a @gaggaalliance, impulsamos Fund Forward para cambiar esta realidad: dirigir recursos hacia donde puedan generar un impacto más profundo y duradero. 💚
Si queremos soluciones climáticas que perduren, debemos financiar a quienes ya las están haciendo posibles.

Climate finance is failing the people who need it

Climate finance is failing the people who need it most.In 2023, 67% of global energy supply still came from fossil fuels. Planned fossil fuel production in 2030 would far exceed levels compatible with 1.5°C. African external debt has more than doubled since 2010, partly driven by the development finance instruments meant to enable the "just" transition.
Something is broken in how we fund climate action.
Women-led, community-based organisations are doing some of the most effective climate work on the planet. They are restoring ecosystems, governing land democratically, building food sovereignty, and leading locally-grounded renewable energy. But they are systematically locked out of climate finance by:
Rigid legal registration requirements
Reporting systems designed for large institutions
A bias toward loans over grants that deepens debt dependency Language and bureaucratic barriers that favour Global North actors and people
At Santa Marta, we need concrete commitments to fix this. Climate finance under the Paris Agreement must be not just adequate and ambitious, it must be appropriate and accessible. That means grants. Direct access. Feminist funds, Women’s funds and socio-environmental funds. No new debt burdens on communities already bearing the costs of extraction.
Climate reparations must also be on the table. The communities most harmed by fossil fuel extraction are owed more than loans to fund their own adaptation.

The First Conference on Transitioning Away from Fo

The First Conference on Transitioning Away from Fossil Fuels opens today in Santa Marta, Colombia.
This is a historic moment. But history is made in the details. Details like who gets to speak, whose knowledge shapes the agenda, and whose livelihoods are protected when decisions are made.
The International Labour Organization (ILO) is clear: women, Indigenous peoples, informal workers and youth face disproportionate job and livelihood losses during energy transitions. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) confirms that adaptive capacity is lowest among structurally excluded groups. And GAGGA’s decade of frontline experience shows that when these groups are excluded from decision-making, transitions fail - ecologically, economically and socially.
Our ask for decision-makers are straightforward:
Centre women, Indigenous Peoples and frontline communities not as participants, but as decision-makers.
Mandate Free, Prior and Informed Consent for all transition-related projects.
End the framing of fossil gas as a "transition fuel." Methane leakage makes it incompatible with 1.5°C.
Reject large-scale carbon offset projects that displace communities.
The fossil fuel phase-out is inevitable. The form it takes is not. Today is a chance to get it right.

The difference lies in who controls resources, whose knowledge counts, and who leads.
The First Conference on Transitioning Away from Fossil Fuels opens tomorrow. GAGGA’s and WoMin African Alliance’s policy brief, ‘From Fossil Fuels to Gender-Just Futures: Land, Care and Livelihoods as Foundations of a Just Transition,’ lays out what a feminist, locally-led and commons-based just transition looks like in practice.
It is grounded in a decade of frontline climate work experience, with 2,590+ women-led organisations across 60+ countries. It is written by and with the communities bearing the costs of extraction — and leading the alternatives.
The brief makes five core demands of policy-makers, decision-makers and funding partners:
Scale and transform climate finance: reframe it as reparation, not charity.
Ensure direct access for women-led community-based organisations: grants, not loans; flexibility, not bureaucracy.
Ensure women's decision-making power: not participation, but leadership in governance structures.
Put feminist post-extractive pathways at the centre: commons governance, agroecology, community-owned energy.
End false solutions: no fossil gas, no offsetting that displaces communities, no green extractivism without safeguards.
Share it. Tag the funders, policymakers and allies in your network who need to read it. The window for a genuinely just transition is open, but not indefinitely. Let’s make the most of it.

"Clean" energy isn't clean if it displaces the com

"Clean" energy isn't clean if it displaces the communities it claims to help
As delegates prepare to land in Santa Marta, for the First Conference on Transitioning Away from Fossil Fuels, here's what needs to be said plainly: the green energy transition, as currently designed, is reproducing the extractive logic it was meant to replace.
Lithium. Cobalt. Copper. Rare earths. The materials powering wind turbines and electric vehicles have to come from somewhere — and right now, they are coming from Indigenous and communal lands in the Global South, with little or no consultation, inadequate compensation, and no binding safeguards.
In South Africa's Namaqualand, 700,000 hectares of Indigenous communal land is being eyed for a green hydrogen megaproject, designed primarily to export energy to Northwest Europe, not to address South Africa's own energy crisis.
In Uganda, a rare earths mining licence covering 300 square kilometres was granted in a region where communities depend on the land for food, water and livelihoods, with women systematically excluded from consultation processes.
This is what our policy brief calls "green extractivism." It is not a just transition. It is extraction with a different label.
Delegations in Santa Marta must grapple with this contradiction and not simply celebrate the phase-out of fossil fuels, but demand that what replaces them is built on justice, not dispossession.
