Rooted Resistance, Collective Power
Climate, Migrant and Racial Justice Movement-Building Summit 2026
On 4-5 September, we’re holding a two-day movement-building event for representatives from groups across the country to connect and organise together at the intersection of climate, migrant and racial justice.
As the far-right continues to shape public discourse and policy, migrant communities face escalating attacks, border militarisation, and a deepening hostile environment. At the same time, climate breakdown is driving inequality and displacement as the impacts on people in marginalised communities become more severe.
The rise of racism and authoritarianism across the political spectrum threatens our lives, our communities, and the planet – but countless examples of solidarity and collaboration across the country have shown that, working together, we are stronger and more resilient.
This Summit aims to support the long-term movement-building needed to win our intersecting struggles: rooted in racial justice and collective joy. We are co-creating this space not only to organise together, but to connect, celebrate, and build the kind of movement people want to be part of.
This event is invitation-only, but we’re open to organisations from across our movements getting in touch if you’d like to send a representative – register your interest in joining and we’ll get in touch with more information.
The Summit is being organised by the Climate & Migrant Justice Organising Group (CMJ), a collective of climate, migrant and racial justice organisations, convened by the Climate Justice Coalition. We’re working together to build solidarity and collaboration between our movements and strengthen the intersection between climate, migrant and racial justice. The Organising Group includes:
Climate Justice Coalition, Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants, Racial Justice Network, Migrants Organise, Earth Refuge, Council of Ethnic Minority Voluntary Sector Organisations Scotland, Friends of the Earth Scotland, No Borders in Climate Justice, People & Planet, Climate Outreach, War on Want, Tipping Point UK, Uplift, Black Lives Matter UK and UK Youth Climate Coalition.
