THE CAUSE
women & climate

Climate change affects us all - but not equally. Women and girls disproportionately bear the brunt of increasingly brutal climate impacts. Not only are they more likely to die when natural disasters strike; they are left with fewer coping resources at their disposal given they are often poorer, have less access to education and are frequently excluded from decision-making processes.

At Code Green, we believe there can be no climate justice without gender justice. The two are inextricably linked, with women the true pioneers in the fight against climate change managing the majority of the world’s natural resources.

 

…ON THE GREAT GREEN WALL

Nowhere is this more evident than in Africa’s Sahel region, where women make up 80% of the agricultural labour force but grapple with the daily fallout of climate breakdown, from persistent droughts to food insecurity, mass migration to natural resource induced conflicts.

That’s why we are focusing our first NFT fundraising drop on the Great Green Wall - an urgent initiative growing an 8000km natural wonder of the world across Africa - helping to build the resilience of women across the Sahel who are living on the precipice of an accelerating global emergency.

IMPACT

The proceeds from the drop will be channeled through 3 grassroot networks and campaigns, championing the most innovative and impactful solutions on the Continent.

  • 1t.org’s Uplink Challenge for the Great Green Wall & the Sahel, supporting the top ecopreneurs on the Continent spearheading innovative approaches to implementing this epic vision

  • Great Green Wall Frontline - a new campaign championing the role of citizen power in bringing the Great Green Wall to life through people-powered solutions and citizen assemblies to grow a movement that is truly owned by the Wall’s custodian communities

  • The Global Shea Alliance (GSA) - a non-profit industry association that promotes the vital role of the shea tree as a critical source of income to the livelihoods of 16 million women across Africa.

After standard platform and operating fees, 70% of the profits will go to the Great Green Wall, with the 30% remaining with the artist of the sold piece. 


NFTs on the
world stage

The Davos NFT drop will be held in collaboration with 1t.org - an initiative of the World Economic Forum, in support of the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration.

Each year the WEF holds a five day meeting in Davos where global leaders are mobilized to shape the principles, policies and partnerships needed in this challenging modern world. People from all walks of life will come together to work towards a more inclusive, cohesive and sustainable future.

January 2022’s edition of Davos will be a virtual event due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.

A SUPER RARE
MARKETPLACE

The Davos NFTs are going to be sold on the platform SuperRare, one of the best curated NFT marketplaces in the world.

SuperRare is a marketplace to collect and trade unique, single-edition digital artworks. Each artwork is authentically created by an artist in the network, and tokenized as a crypto-collectible digital item that you can own and trade.

You can think of SuperRare like the best curated NFT platform for 1/1 artists. A new way to interact with art, culture, and collecting on the internet!

WHO RUNS THE WORLD?
NFT GIRLS

A community celebrating representation, inclusivity, and equal opportunities for all. United by a first-of-its-kind collection, featuring 10,000 artworks of diverse and powerful women.

WOW believe that NFT collections should be created by people from all over the world, and should feature art that feels approachable, inclusive and authentic to people of all backgrounds.

Stay tuned as Code Green and World of Women take NFTs to the world stage.
