Narrative Power & Climate Justice
Beyond COP: Centering Voices, Shaping Power.
This report is the second phase of the report ‘Climate Justice: Who has a seat at the table?’. It is a collective effort to document, analyse, and challenge patterns of exclusion in global climate governance.
Our first phase revealed that while the Global South makes up the majority of participants at major climate events, their voices remain underrepresented in decision-making, media coverage, and leadership roles. Phase 2 built on that foundation.
