World's Youth for Climate Justice (WYCJ) reposted this
Relive the inspiring moments of our two-day Climate Justice Story Lab! 🌍✨ Held at the end of May 2024 in The Hague – the city of peace and home to the International Court of Justice – this impactful event was part of our Not Just Celsius project, amplifying the mission to take the climate crisis to the world's highest court. Together with the World's Youth for Climate Justice (WYCJ) and Pacific Islands Students Fighting Climate Change who started the historic #ICJAO campaign, and in co-operation with Movies that Matter and DOC SOCIETY, we brought together climate litigators, storytellers, campaigners, journalists, activists and scientists to discuss the topic of climate justice through a legal lens. We explored impacts of the climate crisis and its intersectional linkages with other social justice topics, ideated on how storytelling can advance climate justice, and connected a community of changemakers to foster solutions for a just future. In the words of one of our very special guests, Lakota Elder Cheryl Angel: “Community is more powerful than leadership. And it is through cooperation and co-creation that consent and cohesiveness of decisions can be truly achieved.” Thanks to everyone who joined us on this inspiring two-day journey, let's continue to drive change together! 💚 #ClimateJustice #StoryLab #NotJustCelsius #ClimateCrisis #SocialJustice #Storytelling Special thanks to Vivian Schröder Chautuileo Tranamil Siosiua Veikune Jule Schnakenberg Mert Kumru Dominique P.
