SOUTH NORTH NEXUS LISTENS LOCALLY AND CONTRIBUTES GLOBALLY

WELCOME TO ​SOUTH NORTH NEXUS!

Our Mission: SNN seeks to build resilient livelihoods by promoting equity and social justice for all; engaging women, disregarded communities, and immigrants; and prioritizing access to water and food security.
From Patagonia in South America to the Rocky Mountains of North America, SNN partners with a range of stakeholders to address the most pressing problems facing those with the smallest voices.

​We are committed to bringing people together to tackle their challenges related to climate adaptation and mitigation planning, migration, water use and conservation, food system integrity, gender empowerment, and social justice.

Sustainable long-term solutions that protect livelihoods and the planet are urgently needed, starting with the framework of the United Nations Strategic Development Goals and leaving no one behind.

VISION


SNN is a platform that represents innovative solutions, equity and social justice for all, with special attention to the most vulnerable. We are committed to global development that sustainably protects livelihoods, communities and the planet.

Today the challenges are great and urgent. It is up to each of us as global citizens to find and share solutions that build resilience in the face of climate shocks, promote dignity for those furthest behind, and guarantee access to basic human rights, including food, water, shelter, health, and education.

Essential is developing a common understanding, among communities, organizations, private sector and individuals, that we face shared problems and their consequences. SNN seeks to be a catalyst for dialogue between the South and the North, and for South-South cooperation.
​
Together we can positively shape our shared future!
