Asians and Pacific Islanders and other indigenous people and communities of color in the U.S. and around the world are disproportionately impacted by climate change. APIENC is building a community of Asian and Pacific Islander LGBTQ folks to think together, build community, and figure out where and how to plug into the local, national, and global conversation!

In September 2018, activists, government officials, and industry leaders will gather in San Francisco for the Global Climate Action Summit. Grassroots communities across the nation are organizing to ensure that the summit is representative of those most impacted by climate disaster: people of color, indigenous communities, poor folks, and queer and trans communities. Leading up to the Summit will be a variety of marches, meetings, workshops, and gatherings on topics ranging from racism and indigenous issues to impacts on women, young people, and labor.
