Recognizing the key role played by women, trans, and gender non-binary activists in the protection of their bodies, their communities, and the environment, UAF LAC's mission is to contribute to their sustainability and strengthening of activists and their movements through fast and flexible support, in the face of risk and opportunity. We place collective care and protection at the center of our work, both essential for Activists to thrive not only survive, as they ensure, and articulate all aspects of life (psychological, physical, spiritual, digital, material, and territory).
