Committee on Women Population and the Environment

Category: Social Justice

The Committee on Women, Population, and the Environment is a multi-racial alliance of feminist community based organizers, scholarly activists, and health practitioners. We are committed to promoting the social and economic empowerment of women in a context of global peace and justice and work for the elimination of poverty, inequality, racism, and environmental degradation. By focusing on emerging political issues we work to expose the human rights violations that follow from population-based analyses; such as welfare “reform” and immigration control in the North, and increasing population control in the South; and to build grassroots alliances and actions together at local, regional, national, and international levels on these issues.
