The Resilient, Inclusive and Sustainable Environments (RISE) grants challenge is a groundbreaking mechanism to address gender-based violence in environmental programming and climate-vulnerable contexts. Hosted by the International Union for the Conversation of Nature (IUCN), the RISE grants challenge represents a commitment made to UN Women’s Generation Equality initiative through the Action Coalition on Feminist Action for Climate Justice. The first of its kind, the challenge invests in and supports partnerships between environmental organizations, community-based organizations and leaders, and organizations with experience addressing gender-based violence.
