I am a Colombian activist, mainly focused on climate justice with a gender perspective. Today I am the cofounder of Latinas For Climate, where we fight for climate justice with a gender and regional perspective
I joined FFFD during the pandemic because I wanted to keep fighting even though it wasn’t physically possible and to find more ways to do activism and besides that I found an amazing community, friends that showed me that I wasn’t alone in this fight, and that taught me so many things that have made me the activist and person I am today, and I’ll be forever grateful for this platform!
Jessi Kitchen (He/All) UK
Campaign assistant, research coordinator, writer
I joined FFFD because I wanted to help fight climate change and knew I would be less effective alone, but I had no access to local organisations – FFFD provided me with a way into the climate movement that I would otherwise never have had. Within FFFD I’ve written articles, assisted campaigns, and coordinated our Research department… and made a lot of great friends along the way.
Grace Yang (she/her) USA

Phoebe L. Hanson (she/her) UK
Social media and research WG member
FFFD taught me the comms skills that I used to get my first job in climate advocacy, introducing me to the sector alongside giving me the most wonderful friends I could ask for. I learned the theory of climate justice, case studies from other organisers, and key hard comms skills that have transformed my potential to have an impact.

I joined FFFD to become a part of the world’s best organization 🙂 and to make a change. I work in JEDI, support and organization!
Karis Mcintyre (she/her) UK
social media and TikTok content creator
I joined FFFD to continue activism in a social environment. I loved FFFD because it provides a beautiful online community which is and was so helpful, especially during lockdown. I am currently just working with Teach the Future UK to work to get our bill, which I co-wrote at 14, through parliament.
Brooke Westbury (she/her) Canada
JEDI and onboarding WG member
Many people are suffering from climate change all over the world, and in my own town. I feel an urgency to help & to make other people aware that climate change affects them. I joined FFFD in the summer of 2020, where I started working in JEDI helping out with mental health projects. I worked with JEDI and onboarding.
