Climate justice means listening to frontline communities. It means protecting land defenders. It means ending fossil fuel expansion. It means funding adaptation and loss & damage. It means justice for Africa. The time for empty promises is over. Global Week of Action 23–30 May 2026

Our friends, arrested on 1 August for protesting Stanbic Bank’s role in EACOP, have been convicted after months behind bars. This ruling exposes a system that protects profit and punishes resistance. We will not accept it. We stand in unwavering solidarity. The struggle continues.

Deep in our hearts, we do believe we shall overcome some day

Peaceful protest is not a crime. Yet activists in Uganda face police brutality for standing for what’s right and what they believe in A friend was violently arrested. No explanation. Rough handling. Public humiliation. This is how dissent is treated.

“We shall never surrender.” Our comrades chanted this as court sent them back to Luzira Maximum Prison. 208 days in prison for protesting EACOP. Climate defense in Uganda carries jail time. We call for freedom of climate defenders. #StopEACOP #ClimateActionNow

From the Netherlands to Uganda. From strategy rooms to lived realities. This collaboration showed why Global North and Global South must meet face to face. Not to speak for each other. To listen and act together. We are redefining history. #ClimateActionNow
