Words matter. Let’s call it what it is: climate crisis. Terrifying words from ⁦@MaryRobinsonCtr⁩ but also one of hope. Women’s leadership can lead the solutions. Lots to learn from African women long working on frontline climate crisis. ⁦@WakeIntl⁩ #WomenFunded2019

What can individuals do to push D&I? “Celebrate Curiosity” says @zlurie we would also add- do the work. There are so many great groups pushing this, good to see @SurveyMonkey putting in the time to do so #SIS18
