People of faith present their calls, hopes and demands for climate justice at COP26 to political leaders
Join us at COP26, where faith activists, youth, and leaders from around the world will present their calls, hopes, and demands for climate justice to political leaders.
In the run-up to COP26, people of faith worldwide have been mobilizing to demand climate justice from COP26. The LWF, with the Global Action and Prayer Chain for Climate Justice, is calling on governments to ramp up their efforts and commitments to limit global warming to 1.5°C with a petition.
The event will feature the handover of petitions and statements, hearing demands for climate justice from youth activists, and joining together in prayer for bold and just climate action at COP26.
