Bringing feminist activism and analysis closer together at all levels

The Committee on Women, Population, and the Environment is an alliance of feminist activists that work to place the problems of environmental degradation, conflict, and growing poverty in the appropriate context.  CWPE goal is to bring “feminist activism and analysis closer together at local, regional, national and international levels, and to work in partnership with community activists and organizations.”  To that end, CWPE is currently working on projects to educate population and environmental organizations, surveying secondary-school textbooks for population and environment curricula, and opposing quinacrine chemical sterilization.
