About this Event
FRIDAY, OCT 18

350.org, Surfrider Foundation, Sierra Club & SF Baykeeper present
The 4th Annual Environmental Equity Summit
Adding Color To The Green Movement
The Environmental Equity Summit is a bold platform for representation and activism that elevates and amplifies the voice and power of people of color as leaders in the environmental justice movement. Participants come together to share experiences and discuss steps to diversify the Green Movement as well as providing a platform to discuss the specific needs of vulnerable communities. This event will foster collaboration between large ENGOs and smaller grassroots environmental justice groups so that the needs of underserved communities who are most impacted are better represented.
Featuring an incredible panel of thought leaders within the environmental justice movement.
