We’re All in the Same Storm, Different Boats, Says Young Activist With Disability

BELÉM, Brazil, Nov 13 2025 – At the UN Climate Conference venue in Belém, young activist João Vitor da Costa da Silva is trying to make his case heard by negotiators. The 16-year-old Da Silva has a specific request for the parties: the needs of young people with disabilities should be addressed through the lens of climate justice.

Belém native Da Silva navigates the venue in his wheelchair, sharing his story and engaging in conversations. His advocacy is not only about himself—it’s for all youth living with any form of disability. As climate change-induced extreme weather events become more frequent and intense, people with disabilities are more vulnerable than others unless there is a plan to assist them before, during, and after such events.

IPS spoke with Da Silva in the context of disability and climate justice.

IPS: How did you become involved in climate activism and how do you view the interconnection between climate change and disability?

Da Silva: I first got involved in climate and environmental activism because I live on an island called Caratateua. On the island, we face the impacts of climate change every day. We live with it day by day. I emerged from a grassroots movement in my neighborhood. On my street, people used to dump garbage in the wrong place, turning it into a dumpster. I wanted it removed and began speaking out against it because it was difficult for me to use my wheelchair. And the connection I see between climate activism and the rights of people with disabilities is like this famous phrase: ‘We can’t have climate justice without social justice.’ If we can’t even guarantee the right of a person with disabilities to move freely, how are we going to change the situation?

IPS: Why did you decide to speak out, and why does it matter?

Da Silva: The first point is that once I was able to get the dumpster removed from our street, I realized, if I can do that, then what else can I do? The second point is that when I learned how young people and children are the most affected by climate change, I realized that if our generation doesn’t speak out, we’ll be the ones suffering the longest.

IPS: You mentioned there is no justice without climate justice. For people living with disabilities, what does climate justice look like?

Da Silva: Climate justice means recognizing that we’re all living through the same situation, but some suffer more than others. It’s about understanding that people with disabilities will be more affected by the consequences than others.

IPS: Let’s talk about accessibility. You are here at COP, raising awareness about the intersection of climate change and disability. Do you think the UNFCCC or COP negotiations are mindful of this intersection?

Da Silva: No. I think this cause is not well integrated into the negotiations and environmental agreements.

IPS: If it’s not well discussed in climate negotiations and agreements don’t reflect the unique needs of people living with disabilities, how does that impact the justice being claimed?

Da Silva: That’s why it’s important to occupy these spaces. We have to be physically present—sometimes just having your body here says more than words. After occupying the space, we have to advocate and demand. So first, it’s about being here. Second, it’s about using that presence to advocate for the cause.

IPS: Do you think people on the negotiation teams and in policymaking positions are listening?

Da Silva: Do I think people are listening to me directly? I don’t know. But I’m here. I’m speaking. I’m advocating.

IPS: Climate negotiations have been going on for a long time, yet disability and climate justice have not been prioritized. What is your hope for these negotiations?

Da Silva: I hope to see actual, concrete public policies being implemented—especially regarding disaster and risk protocols. We’re all in the same storm, but we’re in different boats. For example, I cannot walk long distances, I cannot run, and I cannot go upstairs. So, I’m vulnerable and need others to help me in emergencies. That reality needs to be reflected in the documents.

IPS: Is there anything you’d like to add?

Da Silva: It’s not often that people talk about the connection between disability and climate justice. I hope to speak more about this connection, because it’s not only about me-many young people also live with disabilities. This is my cause. It’s for the rest of my life. I will keep speaking out.

Brazil is Breathing Life into Climate Commitments—Human Rights Lawyer

By Joyce Chimbi
BELÉM, Brazil, Nov 13 2025 – Binaifer Nowrojee, a human rights lawyer and the president of the Open Society Foundations (OSF), has lauded the Brazilian government “for significant steps taken to breathe life into the climate commitments.”

A distinguished human rights advocate with over three decades of experience navigating politically sensitive operating environments to drive meaningful change, she particularly noted that events at the Conference of the Parties (COP) run differently and as they should when held in a country with a democracy as compared to those without democratic governance.

Speaking to IPS at COP30, the United Nations Climate Change Conference taking place in Belém, Brazil, from 10 to 21 November 2025, Nowrojee said the venue is “a strong statement in support of the indigenous and Afro-descendant people who continue to struggle to control their environment or live their lives to their full potential. Their inclusion and participation sends the right message.”

OSF, the world’s largest private funder working to promote human rights, equity, and justice, works around the world, addressing various complex and most pressing issues such as the intersection between climate change, justice, equity and human rights while at the same time leveraging emerging and existing opportunities to rebuild economies, revitalise democracies and improve livelihoods.

She spoke extensively of the changing world order, stressing that even in these uncertain times, opportunities abound. While the absence of the US and particularly representatives of the President Donald Trump administration from COP30 is symbolic, Nowrojee says this move presents a real opportunity for the global South to regroup and chart a more inclusive path forward.

So far, she believes “the global South is stepping up, as they are now able to speak more freely and not water down their commitments to reach a compromise climate agreement. There is now a real possibility for countries in the global South to emerge with new ideas.”

Nowrojee said these new ideas include rethinking the intersection between climate change, environmental protection and human rights, because environmental and land defenders are the most targeted globally among all rights defenders. More than 146 land and environmental defenders were killed or disappeared globally in 2024 defending their land, communities, and the environment.

Leadership doesn’t have to come from government; it can come from anywhere.
The Latin America region experienced the majority of these attacks, with Colombia being the country with the most killings for the third year in a row. Indigenous people are disproportionately affected, representing nearly a third of lethal attacks despite being only 6 percent of the global population.

Against this backdrop, Nowrojee says the OSF is “very pleased that there is now a treaty called the Escazú Agreement, which commits Latin American governments to protecting human rights defenders, reinforces their commitment to climate, and ensures that information is given to their publics.”

She noted that the Escazú Agreement is a regional treaty in Latin America and the Caribbean that guarantees the right to environmental information, public participation in environmental decision-making, and access to justice in environmental matters. It is the first and only treaty of its kind, and it also includes special provisions for the protection of environmental human rights defenders and vulnerable groups.

OSF supports the Escazú Agreement by funding initiatives that strengthen its implementation, promote environmental rights, and protect environmental defenders in Latin America and the Caribbean. At COP30, the organization has already announced a major USD 19.5 million commitment to advance environmental justice and support a fair and sustainable economy in Latin America.

Meanwhile, Nowrojee is optimistic that the climate negotiations are moving in the right direction. Stressing that this “climate change crisis offers us a real chance to bring a new vision, one that’s rooted in fairness, dignity and harmony with nature. The global community here has the ability and opportunity to balance people, profit, and planet in a way that has not been achieved in the past.”

On the current and fragmented world order and increasingly nationalistic governments, she says, “we are living through a moment in the world where the structures and ways of doing things that we have had since the end of the Second World War are beginning to crumble. We’ve taken them as far as they can go.”

But the present is not a moment to fold hands and fret—instead, she sees these changes as providing opportunities to rebuild and “for people with moral imagination to step forward to envision and deliver a new and different world where all human beings can thrive. And so, we are no longer living in a unipolar world where the United States is the preeminent force.”

“We’re not even living in a G7 world. We are now living in a world that is a G20 world, where Africa will now have the highest population as a continent and where young people are coming forward and imagining a new world order that truly embraces principles of human rights and dignity. Notably, even young people who’ve never even lived in a democracy are now calling for it. You see it in Kenya, Senegal, Bangladesh and Nepal.”

While the road to rebuilding can be laden with uncertainties, challenges and pitfalls, Nowrojee is hopeful that the global community is up to the task. She advocates finding inspirational leaders and notes that people in every corner of the world are beginning to rise to the challenge. “We’re seeing young people organizing differently within their movements. This, in my opinion, is a real sign of inspiration.”

“Leadership doesn’t have to come from government; it can come from anywhere. And I also see emerging new arrangements such as the coming together of the BRICS countries, which is a group of major emerging economies with 11 member countries. The fact that it’s South Africa that brings a case against Israel at the International Court of Justice and Qatar negotiating and mediating various conflicts means we are now entering a new world. We’re seeing countries doing things that they wouldn’t have done 20 years ago.”

On the place of philanthropy in these uncharted waters, she says “philanthropy is a small part of the globe, and it’s a place and space where new ideas can be catalyzed and risks taken that would otherwise be impossible to take. Philanthropy is really about trying new ideas, new ways of thinking and acting, and maybe even failing, but if these ideas succeed, they then become examples of what could be done.”

On multilateralism or cooperation among many nations, she says the multilateralism structures are not crumbling, “only that, having been built after the Second World War, they are now in some ways frayed at the edges. They’re not performing the same way that they did, but I also see a multipolar world emerging, where different countries are beginning to cooperate and coordinate with each other.”

“I see a lot of imagination in different regions and also across regions. Latin America is taking major steps towards a new world. I see the Vatican with its Jubilee 2025 and attempts to rethink debt forgiveness and the unequal debt burden that countries carry. So, I see signs of change in different places and like-minded people who have the same values coming together to chart a new path towards a new world.”

In this new world, Nowrojee envisions climate justice as “a win-win for communities at the front line who are living in places and efforts to expand their participation in decision-making around how their natural resources are used.  Justice also means ensuring that the excluded or those at the edges become part and parcel of the democratic discussions, and ultimately this helps improve livelihoods and people’s well-being across the board.”

“Equally important is that we protect the planet, because if we are going to live on this planet, we are going to need to take significant and sustainable steps to address the damage that we, the human race, have done to this planet.”
