The Caravans are a virtual “road show” that will seek to galvanize the cross-country stakeholder voices, with an aim of telling the African story while making known the demands of Africa among its inhabitants and the rest of the world. It’s a call for climate justice, justice for those least responsible, most affected by climate change who are also the source of climate solutions and resilience leaders.
