“Nobody else will jump into the fire to save a child besides a mother,” says Bhavreen Kandhari, the co-founder of Warrior Moms in India, a network of mothers pushing for clean air and climate action. “There is nobody else in the world who loves you more than your mother – a mother is always protecting.”

Kandhari is part of a delegation of mothers from the Our Kids’ Climate and Parents For Future Global networks at Cop27 making an impassioned plea to world leaders to put children’s health, rights and futures at the heart of the climate summit.
