DECOLONIZATION AND FEMINISM INFLUENCE ON THE ENVIRONMENTAL AND CLIMATE CHANGE AGENDA IN BRAZIL

As humanity has been gradually exposed to the severe effects of climate change, public policies have been urged to cope with these threats and their social impacts. Southern democracies, such as Brazil, seem to be experiencing an intensified integration of the previously neglected feminist agenda, which can lead to affinities and conveniences being anticipated in public policy dynamics. Delving into this hypothetical bias, this article also aims to explore historical and current facts from feminist, decolonial, and critical perspectives, enabling a more harmonious empirical understanding of Brazilian ecofeminism.
