Sustaining All Life Update

Sustaining All Life will be participating in our third United Nations Conference of the Parties (COP) in Bonn, Germany, in November 2017.

The delegation is being led by Wytske Visser (the International Commonality Reference Person for the Care of the Environment) and Teresa Enrico (the International Liberation Reference Person for Pacific Islander and Pilipino/a-Heritage People). Anne Helgedagsrud (from Norway) and Marijke Wilmans (from the Netherlands) are the organizers.

Twenty-five RCers, mostly from Europe, form our delegation. We are excited to build on the work we did in Paris, France (at COP21), and Marrakech, Morocco (at COP22).

We continue to teach the fundamentals of RC to a group of Moroccans we met at COP22 in Marrakech. The monthly daylong classes are being led in Arabic by Iman Awadh, of London, England, and a small team of supporters. We are building toward a three-day Muslim workshop in Marrakech to be led by Azadeh Khalili (the International Liberation Reference Person for South, Central, and West Asian-Heritage People) in September 2017. Muslim RC leaders from Africa, Europe, and West Asia will attend and welcome our new RCers in Marrakech.
