GEFONT rallies for equitable and just climate finance

On November 16, the General Federation of Nepalese Trade Unions (GEFONT) and affiliated climate activists’ organizations organized a “prabhat pheri” in Kathmandu, demanding equitable and just climate finance at the ongoing COP29.

The “prabhat pheri”, which started from Bhrikuti Mandap with placards on the problems faced by the entire country due to climate change and the impact on workers’ employment and the need to ensure decent work and social security for workers, turned into a “kodsabha” at Shanti Batika in Ratna Park.

At the “kodsabha”, GEFONT Vice President and Nepal Coordinator of the Alliance Against Inequality, Sita Lama, highlighted the impact of the climate crisis on communities nationwide and the impact on workers’ livelihoods from mountain tourism to agriculture, and demanded that the ongoing COP29 meeting provide justice to citizens and workers from communities in underdeveloped and developing countries.
