Summary: For far too long, narratives by donors, development agencies, and environmental organisations in the Global North have paraded pictures of helpless women and girls on the African continent. What these representations fail to capture is that many of these women are fighting for their material needs and the structural inequalities causing them in the first place. As the climate crisis intensifies on the African continent, Anika Dorothy and Lydia Hiraide look to the rich history of intersectional environmentalism of the continent.
