The Convening was co-hosted by Colombian human rights organisation DEJUSTICIA, whose work includes campaigning for environmental justice.  

In this podcast, we hear from Atlantic Fellow BRIAN KAMANZI from South Africa.  Brian has been involved in putting together the global Atlantic community’s climate action plan.
