As singer-songwriter Emeli Sande prepares to add her considerable voice to March4Women on International Women’s Day on Sunday, she tells us why she wants to ensure those most hurt by climate change can be heard.

The climate catastrophe across the world feels deeply personal to me. It is a shocking injustice that those who have done the least to cause it are suffering most.

My heritage comes out of drought-ravaged Zambia; these people are my people. My family in Serenje say their crops are failing, that last year was the worst harvest they can remember.

They are hit twice, with drought and then flash flooding. There is not enough water in the reservoirs to create the hydroelectricity the country runs on – so power cuts are a part of life
