The Climate Speaks Through Us
A campaign by Crtve Development
WE! ARE aims to socialize the issue of climate justice by inspiring young people from vulnerable communities to take climate action through their participation in workshops, showcases, inclusive partnerships, and dialogue. By unleashing their creative potential, the WE!ARE campaign will enable the youth to retell the story of the “Africa we want to see”. Their collective voices will help to place vulnerable communities at the center of the call for climate justice on the African continent.
Pieces from the campaign have been screened at the Youth Pavillion at COP27 in Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt, and the Resilience Frontiers Pavillion at COP28 in Dubai, UAE,
