Speaker Spotlight | HerClimate Fellowship 2026

Tomorrow, the HerClimate Fellowship 2026 welcomes two exceptional climate leaders who are shaping the future of climate finance, sustainable development, and inclusive climate action.

We are honoured to spotlight Bridgette Setshedi, Manager: Climate Mitigation at the Presidential Climate Commission (South Africa), and Asna Towfiq, Senior Manager for Climate Finance at Plan International Canada.

Bridgette brings over a decade of experience in climate and energy policy, regulation, and sustainability, working across sectors including energy, mining, transport, land development, and spatial planning. Through her work at the Presidential Climate Commission, she helps shape evidence-based pathways for a just, inclusive, and low-carbon transition while championing innovation, sustainable energy, and opportunities for women and young people.

Asna Towfiq is a global sustainability and climate finance leader with over 15 years of experience driving social impact across Asia, Africa, and North America. From managing a US$200 million climate investment portfolio at the World Bank to leading climate finance initiatives at Plan International Canada, her work bridges policy, finance, and implementation to advance climate resilience, gender equity, and inclusive development for the communities most affected by climate change.

Together, they will equip our fellows with practical insights into Climate Finance and Project Design—exploring how innovative financing, strategic partnerships, and well-designed projects can transform climate ambition into measurable impact.

Fellows, tomorrow is your opportunity to learn from two accomplished leaders who are turning climate commitments into action. Come ready to engage, ask questions, and deepen your understanding of climate finance for lasting change.

Double the expertise. Double the impact.

Climate leadership is not only about developing solutions, it is also about ensuring knowledge is communicated in ways that inspire learning, inclusion, and action.

Her work explores how education and communication can make complex social and environmental issues more accessible, empowering people to engage meaningfully with the challenges shaping our world.

With research interests spanning critical pedagogy, instructional technology, cultural studies, and second-language acquisition, Lois is passionate about creating inclusive learning spaces that equip people with the knowledge and confidence to drive positive change.

Speaker Spotlight | HerClimate Fellowship 2026

Climate action begins with understanding, and behind every meaningful climate conversation are storytellers who make complex issues accessible, relatable, and relevant.

We are proud to spotlight Loveth Walker, Founder of Climate Gist, climate communicator, media entrepreneur, and one of the speakers for the HerClimate Fellowship 2026.

Through Climate Gist, Loveth is redefining how people engage with climate issues by using storytelling, conversations, and digital media to bridge the gap between climate science, policy, and the public. Her work creates spaces where people can learn, connect, and recognise their role in building a more sustainable future.

A graduate of Political Science from the University of Lagos, Loveth has contributed to climate discourse through research, media, and public engagement. She is also the author of a published research article exploring the role of non-governmental organizations in advancing green energy innovations and sustainable practices in Lagos State, Nigeria.

Her work reflects the power of communication in driving climate action, reminding us that informed communities are better equipped to participate in creating sustainable solutions.

Fellows, get ready for an insightful session with a storyteller using media to make climate action accessible to all.

A thought-provoking takeaway from last week's HerClimate Fellowship 2026 session, shared by Dr. Nachizya Edith Namukanga. She reminds us that climate leadership is not defined by power, but by trust, ethical responsibility, and the courage to engage where decisions are made for meaningful change.

A timely reminder that lasting climate leadership is rooted in integrity, participation, and the willingness to show up where it matters most. 🌍💚
