Green Screen: Digital Rights and Climate Justice – An Event Report

To take initial funder conversations at the intersection of digital rights and climate justice forward, and to contribute
to building a coherent and impactful strategy for a sustainable and equitable internet, the Ford Foundation, Mozilla Foundation, Ariadne Network, Stiftung Mercator and the Internet Society Foundation hosted a two-day, in-person event in Berlin in October 2022, following the Bits und Bäume conference.

The event brought together around 50 people, representing digital rights and environmental communities, grassroots and indigenous movements, as well as philanthropic funders, as thought partners on this complex and pressing
intersection. The aim was to nurture a coalition with the goal to deepen the understanding of the overlap between the different spaces, and to create a shared action agenda on four key topic areas in the research. This report offers a snapshot of the discussions in Berlin and emerging agendas addressing the intersection of climate justice and digital rights.
