In Miami’s Liberty City, the CLEO Institute’s Empowering Resilient Women program brings together diverse women of color, acknowledging their frontline role in facing climate change impacts. Led by Nayshma Jones, the program uplifts these already active community members by addressing environmental challenges, fostering collective support, and providing tools for resilience and leadership. This initiative, evolving from basic education to hands-on urban gardening, aims to connect these women to the land, promote sustainability, and uplift them as community leaders to address pressing climate issues while fostering social justice.
