shado and GoClimate are collaborating again for an event on the importance of action around food and land in the climate justice movement.
About this event
We’ll be discussing a range of topics with activists from the UK and the US, including how anti-racism and de-colonialism are implicit to the movement and how current systems can be changed.
Our brilliant panel of speakers includes:
