Vision

GJEP envisions a world in which all societies are justly and equitably governed with full participation by an engaged and informed populace living in harmony with the natural world and one another. We accomplish our mission by (1) prioritizing campaigns that are key leverage points for advancing systemic change, and (2) linking struggles and strengthening diverse movements with strategic action, information, and analysis. Our Principles We believe in the fundamental equality of all peoples and the intrinsic value of the natural world. Our program work is guided by these principles: Confronting oppression, challenging power elites, and amplifying the voice of the least powerful among us. Championing diversity and equal rights to break down barriers and open doors to common goals and ideas. Working in cooperation, not competition, to build grassroots power.

3. 3.Help address the climate crisis by promoting a fundamental restructuring of our society that will simultaneously help us achieve both global justice and ecological balance.
