Hi Marek,

We’re putting the spotlight on young leaders across Europe and Africa, showing how development funding shapes their work in healthcare, gender equality, climate action, and more.

We’re starting in Kenya, with Sally Ndwiga. She founded the Femiscope Initiative, an organization building practical skills and leadership among young women in communities facing the effects of climate change. You can read her full story on our website.

As Sally says:

“Kenya emits little of global emissions, but has endured the region’s worst droughts in decades.”

So here’s my question for you:

When countries face the worst impacts of climate change, who should help pay for the response? Should countries that produce more emissions take on greater responsibility?

Yes: Those who emit more should contribute more

No: All countries should contribute equally

In Kenya, five failed rainy seasons have pushed up food prices and increased pressure on women and girls, who are often the first to lose access to education and income when crisis hits. Sally puts it simply:

“Investing in climate action and gender equality safeguards stability. It strengthens communities and creates shared prosperity.”

Her story shows how local leadership and global decisions are linked, including how countries in the EU choose to fund climate and gender priorities in the years ahead.

Before you go, I’d still love to know:

Should countries that have contributed most to climate change take on greater responsibility for funding climate response?

Yes

And if you haven’t yet, take a few minutes to read Sally’s full story.

Thank you,

Ciara Kristensen, ONE
