Global Climate Reparations name a commitment to restore and right relationships between people, land, water, and all life. The frontline-led global initiative recognizes that the climate crisis is not only environmental, but relational, historical, and structural.
Global Climate Reparations emerge from the organizers and communities who have lived through generations of extraction, dispossession, and climate harm.
Rooted in Black Liberation, Indigenous sovereignty, and collective governance, this work addresses the historic and ongoing impacts of racialized capitalism and colonial extraction.

Global Climate Reparations took shape through the Jubilee tradition and frontline leadership. In March 2025, over 100 frontline community leaders, faith leaders, and organizers from 24 countries gathered in Rome, Italy for the first Frontline Peoples Jubilee Convening on Global Climate Reparations. Together, they stated harm, named responsibility, and charted pathways toward repair.
Grounded in the Jubilee call for debt forgiveness, restoration, and reconciliation, participants affirmed that climate reparations must be lived, practiced, and governed by those most impacted. The convening produced a shared working statement that defined Global Climate Reparations as collective responsibility and moral repair. This moment helped establish Global Climate Reparations as both a moral framework and a practical strategy for action across movements, institutions, and borders.
#WeChooseNow is the narrative and organizing strategy that helps bring Global Climate Reparations into the public imagination and into action.
While Global Climate Reparations define what repair requires, #WeChooseNow names the urgency of this moment and invites people to act now rather than defer responsibility. Together, they align strategy, story, and action toward a future rooted in repair, shared governance, and abundance.
