More and more Algerian women are establishing themselves as key players in environmental change. Through local cooperatives, NGOs, and citizen initiatives, they are leading concrete projects to combat pollution, improve waste management, and raise public awareness.
In Tizi Ouzou, a women’s association has launched a weekly clean-up operation in the peri-urban forests, mobilizing dozens of participants every Sunday. In Oran, an entrepreneur has developed a service to collect used cooking oil from restaurants and convert it into biodiesel.
Their commitment goes far beyond symbolic action: it is a structured, sustainable movement rooted in the reality on the ground. These women are becoming role models for younger generations, proving that it is possible to combine local action, a solidarity economy, and environmental impact.
On our platform, we highlight these inspiring stories to promote their work and create synergies between committed actors.
