Towards Climate Equity – April 18, 2023 (16:00 – 19:00)
“Climate Change is happening now, and to all of us. No country or community is immune. And, as is always the case, the poor and vulnerable are the first to suffer and the worst hit.” – UN Secretary-General António Guterres
The climate crisis is already having huge effects within our world: from governmental changes to business shifts, protests; conflicts, and much more. During discussions about the need for immediate action, it’s often said that humans are driving the climate towards a series of ‘tipping points’; irreversible and critical points of no return.
In the next edition of the peace&justice café, The Hague community will explore the various ways that climate change is affecting lives across the globe, and at the intersections of rapidly developing challenges – and what needs to be done to keep the crisis from escalating beyond these ‘tipping points’.

The peace&justice café
is the networking hybrid 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. By strengthening our connections, we can help offer concrete solutions for today’s complex and pressing problems and increase our collective impact.
PREVIOUS EDITIONS
the future of democracy
peace&justice café
For the fifth edition, we turned our focus to democracy: where it stands, where it’s going, and what can be done to preserve it. Professionals explored how changes in the landscape affect the work of the peace and justice ecosystem, networked with organisations playing a role in determining the future of democracy, and came away with new connections, insights, and goals.

what’s the role of the private sector?
peace&justice café
For the fourth edition, we highlighted the role the private sector can, should, and does play in driving a more peaceful and just world. Professionals of The Hague’s public, private, and non-profit sectors explored how the private sector chooses to respond to these calls and how NGOs, governments, and international organisations can shape this expanded role that they are carving out.

The Hague in the world and the world in The Hague
peace&justice café
For the third edition, we discussed together with professionals from The Hague’s ecosystem what kind of impact The Hague is making in the world, and how the world is represented here in The Hague. Is the international city of peace and justice truly international? How are members of the Hague’s ecosystem focused on making a more peaceful and just world developing partnerships across borders, even during the pandemic?

where now for climate justice
peace&justice café
For the second edition on November 30, we discussed where we go now in the search for climate justice after COP26. What were the outcomes of #cop26? Did this ‘historic opportunity’ mean that we that we will be able to keep the temperature of the planet under control and limit its increase to 1.5 degrees? Are the promises that governments made on producing less carbon going to reverse the trends?

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?
