Our Mission
The
mission of the National Black Environmental Justice Network
(NBEJN) is to enable African Americans to secure environmental
and economic justice, health equity, political, power, and
civil rights and human rights.
Our
Strategy
Our
organizing strategy encourages active participation by individuals
and organizations across spatial location (urban, suburban,
and rural), disciplines, economic strata, and generations
with the goal of promoting a healthy, just, and sustainable
future. NBEJN seeks to raise awareness of environmental issues
among African Americans and African Descent populations around
the world that are impacted by environmental racism. NBEJN
has undertaken a four-point strategy to combat environmental
racism that focuses on (1) safe and healthy communities; (2)
sustainable development, climate justice, and clean production;
(3) civil rights and equal protection laws and policies; and
(4) international human rights protection.
