Nothing About Us Without Us

In Marajó, the community faces challenges with frequent power outages impacting daily life, highlighting the importance of energy access for basic rights and dignity. The connection between energy justice and climate justice is emphasized, especially as the impacts of the climate crisis worsen. The Marajó Observatory advocates for a transition to clean energy for energy security, amplifying community voices in decision-making spaces. 350.org and partners have implemented 10,000 solar energy systems in the Amazon, focusing on community participation and energy autonomy to ensure the National Energy Transition Plan reflects local needs and culture. The ultimate goal is to create a future where clean energy is a right, promoting climate and social justice.
