A year ago today, Onnie Emerenciana and seven other Bonaire residents, supported by Greenpeace Nederland, had their case against the Dutch Government heard at the District Court of The Hague.

Onnie, a farmer, has watched extreme heat and rising sea levels destroy his crops for years. In January 2026, in a first-of-its-kind judgment, the court ruled that the Netherlands discriminated against Bonaire residents by treating them differently from residents of the European part of the country and by failing to develop a climate adaptation plan.

In our conversation, Onnie shared what this victory felt like – and what it means for other communities facing climate injustice.

Previously, we spoke to Onnie on Whose planet? The climate justice podcast. You can listen to it wherever you get your podcasts at the link in bio Systemic Justice

Funders don’t just fund ecosystems. They are part of the justice ecosystem, with their decisions playing a crucial role alongside marginalised communities seeking justice, litigating organisations, lawyers and the courts.

At this year’s Festival of Learning, Systemic Justice made the case for funders to put law and courts back at the centre of the fight for racial, social, and economic justice by funding community-driven strategic litigation. Read the full piece at the link in bio.

Domenica Ghidei Biidu is a long-time deputy judge in the Netherlands, former Human Rights Commissioner at the Netherlands Institute for Human Rights, Vice Chair of the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance, and a member of Systemic Justice’s Supervisory Board.

Her journey into the law began long before these roles, shaping her understanding of justice not only by legal theory but by lived experience.

Earlier this year we sat down with Domenica for a conversation, where she reflects on the philosophical roots of justice, the realities of working within legal institutions, the power of community-driven strategic litigation, and why hope remains a conscious and necessary choice in the struggle for a more just world.

✨What a special way to mark five years of Systemic Justice✨

At the end of June, we came together with our community partners, supporters, peers, and friends to celebrate this milestone, which belongs to the communities, partnerships, and collective action that have shaped our journey from the very beginning.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of these first five years. We’re looking forward to continuing building collective power and advancing systemic change ✊🏾

At the end of June, we celebrated Systemic Justice’s fifth anniversary with our community partners, supporters, peers, and friends, marking five years shaped by the communities, partnerships, and collective power that made this journey possible.

Systemic Justice was founded to work alongside communities facing injustice, on their own terms. Today, we’re honoured to continue that work alongside our community partners – and guided by our Black-founded origins and our Founder Nani Jansen Reventlow’s vision, as we look ahead to what’s next.
