Dynamic, agile and effective, the Environmental Justice Foundation (EJF) is working to secure a world where natural habitats and environments can sustain, and be sustained by, the communities that depend upon them for their basic needs and livelihoods.
From the cotton fields of Uzbekistan to the coastal waters of West Africa, EJF is working in some of the world’s toughest and most remote countries to shine an international spotlight on the environmental and human rights abuses that too often go unnoticed.
By looking at environmental security through a human rights lens, we can mobilise concern, garner support and drive international action for lasting change.
EJF’s campaigns run across five key areas: oceans, climate, forests, cotton and activist training.
