How do race, gender, and economic status shape climate vulnerability? Why are marginalised communities often hit the hardest by climate disasters?
Hosts Joycelyn Longdon and Carl Schlyter are joined by Mateus Fernandes, a young climate activist from the favelas of Guarulhos, São Paulo, and Lali Fernando Riascos, an Afro-Colombian youth leader and content creator from Guapi, Colombia. Together, they explore the intersection of systemic inequality and the climate crisis.

Mateus and Lali share their experiences of advocacy, resilience, and the urgent need for climate action and social justice.
