Africa accounts for less than 4% of global emissions and yet is hugely impacted by the climate crisis. Africa and her people have been made extremely vulnerable to the effects of climate change because of colonization and racism, which have fueled the continued oppression and exploitation of the continent. In this workshop, we will get the opportunity to hear African leaders from different parts of the continent share how they and their communities are impacted by the climate crisis and their ongoing work to stop it.

Listening circles based on shared experiences give people a chance to be listened to about feelings connected to climate change. Having the chance to share feelings of grief, fear, anger, discouragement, and hope in a mutually supportive group can refresh and give us new ideas for action.
