The 'green transition' is not only innovation, but also remembrance and restoration. Let's draw from our heritage as we imagine the future.

The fifth and final reel from our short film ends our Youth and the Green Transition workshop with a Green Festival, celebrating with cultural dance, an arts exhibit and visits from various practitioners. Thank you Ranga Gworo and Maura Ajak for visiting! ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐ŸŒ๐ŸŒณโ™ป๏ธ
