COP31 Key Demands

Despite the intensifying anti-rights agenda and the rise of conservative governments, the Women and Gender Constituency (WGC) remains unwavering in our pursuit of #FeministClimateJustice for a healthy planet and the wellbeing of our communities. In 2026, we are focused on advancing rights and amplifying feminist analysis and narratives. We will do this through strategic technical engagement in policy processes and direct negotiations via our thematic working groups, as well as through bold public-facing media engagement and manifestations inside the halls of COP31 and around.

Feminists from Australia, the Pacifics, and Türkiye have additionally worked on regional demands that can be found on the WGC website.

As we push forward, we will take deliberate action to prevent harm, resist regression on hard-won commitments, and safeguard progressive language. We will also seize global moments to mobilize, reconnect, and stand in solidarity with our members and the broader global feminist movement within UNFCCC processes and beyond.

WGC Mobilization Priorities

The WGC will prioritize public actions, campaigns, and protests related to:

1. Ending genocide everywhere and challenging militarism
2. Gender Justice: #ActOnBelemGAP
3. Resourcing adaptation implementation
4. A feminist Just Transition
5. Reforming the UNFCCC, calling for multilateral space free from anti-rights, conservatism, and corporate capture.
