Introducing our mini-documentary: Uganda’s New Forests.

Climate change is not just an environmental issue. It’s also a matter of justice: those least responsible for climate change often suffer its worst consequences.

In Uganda, we met some of these people. Climate justice isn’t just about helping them adapt to a changing climate – through local tree-planting projects, for instance. It also requires us to listen to their stories, and to spread their message. That is what our mini-documentary aims to do.

When we decided to visit our reforestation project in Uganda, we did not expect these stories to be what they turned out to be: stories of resilience, innovation, and solidarity.
