It reminded me that, in the face of adversity, we are capable of remarkable things. While to me this was a big feat, the resilience shown every day by environmental and human rights defenders Roots2Justice works with around the world is truly remarkable.
Congratulations to Felix who, after 9 days of trekking, has made it back down from Mount Kilimanjaro!
Felix has been climbing Kilimanjaro, a personal ambition of his since childhood, to raise funds for Roots2Justice.
So far, Felix has raised £1,015 of his £1500 target, all of which will help fund our upcoming Best Practice Forum and the acceleration of legal knowledge sharing.
Felix’s JustGiving page is still accepting donations, which you can donate to here: https://t.co/MNRUWcvIBL
