Women's Environment Network Australia

The Women's Environment Network Australia is an organisation that seeks to amplify women's voices for the environment.

Women are the most likely to respond to surveys as concerned about the environment and represent the majority of people who actively volunteer on environmental projects. Yet this interest is not reflected in formal decision making settings.

Our intention is to remedy this situation by supporting women to confidently have their say on our common future as well as supporting their voices and actions to make a difference for the health of the environment.

Climate Change

Climate Change is arguably the biggest environmental challenge of our time. Over the last year, it has captured the public imagination in a way that few environmentalists thought possible. Tim Flannery’s book 'The Weather Makers', Al Gore’s film 'An Inconvenient Truth', reports from the IPCC, Sir Nicholas Stern’s and Australia's Garnaut review of the economic benefits of early action have all contributed to massive public concern about climate change.
