Today, representatives of communities affected by the East African Crude Oil Pipeline project demanded the halt to all EACOP activities. They also for the prioritization of #sustainabledevelopment projects that will uplift communities without harming the planet.

📚 As @C_j_crew we belive that education youths and young people about climate change is one of the ways we can bridge the knowledge gap and also enhance community based participation in creating a sustainable future for us all.

🛎 This month we collaborated with @PlantForMyFutur and @HHHinitiative to organize a #climatechange workshop and tree-planting activity at Kiwango UMEA primary school in Uganda.
We educated pupils of P.4 & P.5 about the importance of protecting our #climate and biodiversity.

Im #Climatejustice|camp im #Invalidenpark in #Berlin organisieren Aktivist*innen u.a. von @c_j_crew nicht nur Workshops zu #Biodiversität oder Klima-Migration, sondern erproben auch ein solidarisches Zusammenleben. https://t.co/2EpWuyTvPj
Mr. Desire Nkruzinza has been instrumental in campaigning for protection of Bugoma forest 🌳 & community rights. He was arrested this week & remains under detention. The giveaway of Bugoma Forest to @HoimaSugar has worsened civic space. We demand for Desire’s release.
📣 Urgent solidarity with Kampala protesters! 4 activists, including women, arrested & detained. We condemn these arrests & demand their immediate release. We repeat, opposing #EACOP and demanding meaningful involvement or pushing for alternatives is not a crime! #StopEACOP!
Uganda Police has this morning brutally arrested 4 @stopEACOP activists. 3 of them are mothers. @PoliceUg should simply respect the right to protest this project is a disaster to the people of East Africa and we should all say no to #EACOP
Justice delayed is Justice denied.
Again, the court has adjourned the students' case to September 4, 2023 because the Judicial officer hearing the case was absent. With over 5 hearings, the students are still battling common nuisance charges with evidence yet to be adduced.

Deeply disappointed by the UK PM's about-turn on the £11.6bn climate and nature funding pledge. Climate justice requires financial commitments to be honoured. This betrayal undermines vulnerable global south communities from making a just transition. https://t.co/4WAMsASXo2

Germanys @Bundeskanzler has now been officially criticised for illegally trying to soften the sectoral targets of the Climate Change Act. Transport Minister @Wissing must now finally do his homework, which the @c_j_crew already called on him to do last year at #Verkehrswendecamp!
Jetzt offiziell: Bundeskanzler Scholz hat gegen das Rechtstaatsprinzip verstoßen! Das geht aus der Antwort des Wissenschaftlichen Dienstes des Bundestags auf meine Anfrage hervor. #Scholz hat zu Unrecht verfügt, daß das geltende #Klimaschutzgesetz nicht umgesetzt werden muss.🧵/1
