Climate Change and the Roots of Conflict

Hosted by Inspire Dialogue Foundation and Global Wetness

Climate Change and the Roots of Conflict

We need to talk about the roots of violence. Where does the savagery come from that resists activism around climate change and so we're also going to have to talk about power, where it lies and how it is exercised
Dr. Rowan Williams

2020 was the deadliest year for environmental and land defenders standing up to protect their homes and our planet. Now watch the Inspire Dialogue Foundation and Global Witness program on Climate Justice and the Roots of Conflict, hosted by Dr. Rowan Williams as part of the COP26 Coalition program. 

“If we forget our responsibility to the environment, then sooner or later, we forget our responsibility to our fellow human beings. These two are deeply connected.”
Dr. Rowan Williams
