Join the Movement

Together, we can build a future where environmental justice isn't just an idea — it's the law.

ERA is a coalition because no single organization can win this alone. Join us in advocating for a just, inclusive, and sustainable Africa.

Bring Your Expertise to a Working Group

ERA's Working Groups need researchers, legal drafters, communicators, organizers, and fundraisers. If you've got the skill set, there's a group that needs it.

The Ask, Plainly

Africa's environmental rights shouldn't depend on which country you were born in.

Or whether your government feels like enforcing the law this year. ERA is building the framework that makes the right to a clean, safe environment real and enforceable — everywhere on the continent. That takes a coalition.

Be part of it.
