Our Focus
Gender Justice
At Rooted Rising, gender justice is at the heart of our mission. We recognize that climate change, environmental degradation, and social injustices disproportionately affect women and marginalized genders, particularly in frontline communities. Our commitment to gender justice means amplifying voices that are often silenced, ensuring equal participation in decision-making, and advocating for policies that address systemic inequalities. Through our initiatives—whether in storytelling, advocacy, or community engagement—we strive to create spaces where gender equity is not just a goal but a lived reality. By integrating gender justice into our work, we stand for a world where everyone, regardless of identity, has the power, resources, and opportunities to thrive in a sustainable future.
Environment Justice
The environment is more than a cause—it is a matter of justice. We recognize that environmental degradation disproportionately affects marginalized communities, particularly those in oil-sacrificed zones and vulnerable ecosystems. Our commitment to justice means advocating for policies and actions that protect both people and nature, ensuring that communities have access to clean air, safe water, and a sustainable future. Through storytelling, advocacy, and grassroots engagement, we amplify voices from the frontlines of environmental harm, demanding accountability from polluters and decision-makers. At the heart of our mission is the belief that a just transition to a greener world must be inclusive, equitable, and rooted in the realities of those most affected.
Society
At Rooted Rising, society is at the heart of our mission, driven by the belief that justice must guide our advocacy for people and the planet. Through storytelling, education, and direct engagement, we empower communities to challenge injustices, demand systemic change, and co-create solutions that prioritize human and ecological well-being. By fostering awareness, advocating for policies that address structural inequalities, and supporting grassroots movements, we work towards a future where every individual—regardless of background—has access to clean air, safe water, and a sustainable environment. Because justice is not just an ideal; it is the foundation for true societal progress.
