Our editorial approach is intersectional by design. This platform will grow to reflect the full ecosystem of our work, including public infrastructure, livelihoods, trade justice, climate justice, and youth action, always filtered through a care lens that reminds us how we live matters just as much as what we fight for.

So, as you read this first issue, we invite you to see care not as a soft issue, but as the structure underneath the struggle and to speak of it in the languages of justice, dignity, and power. We invite and implore you, dear reader, to honour it, to fund it, and to fight for it.

Let CACUN be the amplifier, connector, and truth-teller our region needs. We’re so glad you’re here to walk this journey with us.

In solidarity,
Janet Zhou, Nicola Nkhoma & Aliness Mumba
