In this series, from UN Human Rights Regional Office, Southern Africa (OHCHR ROSA): we hear from young environmental human rights defenders who took park in a project co-sponsored by UNICEF South Africa, OHCHR ROSA, along with EPA Images and Maverick Citizen to take look at climate change, climate action and climate justice through the eyes of involved young people. The result was The Green Rising: Through a Fresh Lens, a book and exhibition of photos taken by 12 young environmental rights defenders articulating what climate change and the environmental crisis means to them through photos. The participants were selected from across South Africa and were all either involved in climate and environmental projects or had a photographic background. The photos show various views of the same issue -- unless we do something, we may lose what we have.
Episode two: Maleeqah Karriem
21-year-old Maleeqah, advocates for socioeconomic solutions for climate action. She sees climate change in terms of mental health, with her photos conveying the feelings of angst and anxiety, that surround trying to work on saving the planet. Her photo series "How could we stop Mother Nature's wrath? What's the point of trying?" Maleeqah's images make you pause and think with their evocation of nostalgia, anxiety and urgency. She is in conversation with Kaylois Henry from UN Human Rights.
