Black Women for Climate: Strengthening Urban Peripheries

ANDUS Project (GIZ Brazil) and National Secretariat of Peripheries (Ministry of Cities)

The panel will present the Black Women for Climate Mentorship, a result of the partnership between GIZ and the National Secretariat for Peripheries, of the Ministry of Cities, as part of the Periferia Viva Program.

The event aimed to strengthen peripheral urban leaders, protagonists of the transformation and sustainable development of their territories. They received training, discussed measures to improve environmental conditions and combat the impacts of climate change in their territories, held strategic meetings with the federal government, and created a support network among themselves, exchanging experiences and knowledge.

To share their experiences during the mentoring, the following will be at the table: Ana Claudia Barbosa (leader of the Terra Prometida Occupation - São Paulo/SP), Bizza Araújo (Coordinator at the MTST Solitary Kitchen in Sol Nascente - Brasília/DF), Dayane Monteiro (leader of the Aratu Collectors Club - João Pessoa/PB), Lília Melo (leader of the Terra Firme Film Club - Belém/PA) and Simone Sigale (Co-coordinator of the Quebrada Women Collective - Belo Horizonte/MG).

The Black Women for Climate Mentoring program was implemented within the scope of the Support for the National Urban Development Agenda in Brazil (ANDUS) Project, a partnership between the Ministry of Cities (MCID), the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change (MMA), and the Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWE) of Germany as part of the International Climate Initiative (IKI). It is implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH within the context of the Brazil-Germany Cooperation.

NOTE OF CONDOLENCE

With deep sorrow, the Brazilian Institute of Architects – São Paulo Department (IABsp) mourns the passing of architect and landscape architect Kongjian Yu, a global leader in ecological urbanism, and the members of his team who accompanied him, tragically killed during the filming of a documentary. The institute is honored to have had him as a participant in the 14th São Paulo International Architecture Biennial, where his transformative vision strengthened the dialogue between global challenges and local realities. IABsp emphasizes that Yu's contribution, which transcends borders, will remain an inspiration for generations and expresses its condolences to China, to the families of all the deceased, to his friends, and to all those impacted by his genius and dedication.
