where now for climate justice
The second peace&justice cafe was organised in the Aftermath of the COP26 summit in Glasgow. With the aim of the COP being bringing many different parties together to tackle climate change, the participants investigated and evaluated this aim tackling questions such as: What did the summit actually deliver? What were the next feasible steps ahead?
Do you want to learn about what was discussed during the event including the promised cut down on carbon, funding for the climate change adaptation of fragile island states and the rethoric promisng a green transition?
Thanks to our partners!
The peace&justice café
is the new networking event series for cross-sectoral connection and collaboration for a more peaceful and just world. Launched by the Hague Humanity Hub in collaboration with the Municipality of The Hague, it convenes the peacebuilders, justice innovators, researchers, humanitarians, impact entrepreneurs, policy makers, and other changemakers from The Hague and beyond.

Breakout round 1
The Hague Peace Projects on what justice if any, achieved or to-be-achieved post-COP26
Many initiatives attending COP26 included youth from the Global South – like Saving Tuvalu campaign. What were the expectations of these young people? How did they experience Glasgow? What’s next for these campaigners?
Hosts:
The Hague Academy for Local Governance on Climate Justice and the rights of nature
How can we include ecosystems and biodiversity in local decision-making processes for adaptation/resilience planning? Given the growing attention on nature-based solutions, how can we translate international agreements into local actions? We will touch on the many links between ecosystems, local livelihoods, governance, and localizing multilateral climate agreements.
Hosts:
Space4Good on Bridging the Gap in Data for Prosecuting Environmental Crime
From insights to actions – how can we bridge the crucial gap from globally available data towards sustainable interventions and prosecution of environmental crimes.
Host:
THUAS Centre for Expertise on Global Governance on how to move toward a more inclusive climate justice in inclusive multi-level climate governance
The increased engagement of historically underrepresented groups, such as youth and children during COP26 made it evident that climate policies and policy discussions need to be much more inclusive, canvassing broader interests and in a manner that empowers all those bearing the impacts of climate-related decision-making. What are the ways to give voice, enhance agency and create platforms for such underrepresented stakeholders at various levels of governance? How to enhance tools of effective adaptation for vulnerable groups in facing the already evident and harmful consequences of global warming, such as heatwaves? The discussion is embedded in a multi-level context, and we hope to collect views from a broad range of actors.
Hosts:
16:45
Breakout round 2
Justice Connection & Find Out Why on Climate: the next infodemic?
We have been through circles of understanding about the infodemic of misinformation during the Covid pandemic. What are the lessons learned by journalists and how those can be put to good use in the context of reporting on climate? How is disinformation stifling the needed conversation about climate change and is there a better way for journalists to understand science and provide quality reporting for the public?
Hosts:
UN Youth Impact on the role of youth and student’s organisations in contributing to resolving local climate challenges
We will focus on the strategies and methods available to these groups and especially on education and local environment. An example would be creating more green spaces in our universities or looking at how we can work with others to change the way we consume.
Hosts:
Moveer Learning Design on climate responsibility: helping youth exploring their ability to respond
Host:
Global Governance Forum on following up on COP26: Perspectives on enhanced global climate governance
Host:
Continua on giving Earth a seat at the table
Climate justice and sustainability require fundamentally different approaches to the challenges we face, and specifically a way to give our planet a more direct voice in multilateral negotiations and public policy development. What are we missing when our analysis is shaped only by human perspectives? What practical opportunities exist to develop new approaches to negotiations which bring in the perspectives of nature and ecosystems and open up new spaces for problem solving and consensus?
Host:
HiiL on why climate justice needs people-centred justice
previous editions
touching base in a shifting world
peace&justice café launch event
For the first edition on June 15, we exclusively spotlighted (Hague-based) female leaders to share their perspectives on how the(ir) world has been shifting. The recent and sustained global upheavals have uprooted societies, disrupted ways of working, and exacerbated systemic inequalities and injustices. How can the Hague community of professionals respond and navigate this shift together? We are on a journey without maps, except as we draw them. There are no simple answers, only an opportunity to explore together.
