Feminist Water Ethics

Feminist Water Ethics emphasizes that water rights and access should be fair and equitable, recognizing how gendered power dynamics and social roles affect individuals’ relationships with water. It advocates for the inclusion of women's voices and experiences in decision-making processes, highlighting that marginalized groups often face greater water scarcity and pollution. This approach promotes environmental justice by connecting water issues to broader social inequalities, aiming for sustainable and equitable water management that respects the needs and rights of all genders, especially those historically underserved or oppressed.
