Description
Funds raised shall be channeled through donation button link provided at profile/registration stage. Work shall progress in real time as funds come in. Progress reports/updates (including pictures) shall be posted on goodsurfing blog among other social media platforms in order to keep the team in the loop. The project has already been able to procure 5 acres of land towards this cause. We need to make the "Environmental Education Hub" habitable by volunteers visiting for purposes of carrying out among others activities on Education, Research and Rural Development in Kapir, Eastern Uganda. Climate Justice remains a cross cutting issue. As a matter of principle, climate change is a global challenge affecting the entire world and humanity as a whole. Apart from that, scientists predict increasingly severe consequences of climate change for generations yet to come. The concept of climate justice addresses this unequal allocation of benefits and burdens by relating climate change to matters of social justice and human rights. We consider climate justice as an inevitable brick in building a sustainable future and creating a just and fair society. By taking active steps against climate change and demonstrating solidarity with most vulnerable population groups and peoples, we assume our responsibility in the global sustainability challenge and seek to do our part in attaining climate justice. Together with local communities, volunteers shall work on grassroots projects that combine manual work and awareness raising actions. These address issues such as: climate change, carbon offset, environmental sustainability, protection of responsibility in the global sustainability challenge and seek to do our part in attaining climate justice.
