Climate, economic and social justice: taking action in French-speaking West Africa

About Course

This certified course from the RFLD Francophone Academy presents the three justices, climate, economic and social, based on the MOOC developed by RFLD with funding from BMZ and support from GIZ. It draws on examples from Benin, Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, Guinea, Mali, Niger, Senegal and Togo.

In six lessons, you will cover the basic definitions, the impacts of climate change on communities, the legal frameworks you can use and the related economic and social issues. The last module gives you practical methods to build a campaign, keep a coalition alive, diversify your funding and work safely online.
