Come to our public meeting on Monday 10th October, 7pm at the Brighthelm Centre on North Road to hear Bongani Mthembu from South Africa and Deborah Doane, director of WDM, speak about the urgent need for climate justice ahead of the UN climate talks in South Africa in December.
Bongani Mthembu is from Umlazi, South Africa’s second biggest township. He is a member
of a Durban environment group, and campaigns against industrial pollution in the area. He
is working to educate ordinary South Africans about environmental injustice, and organising
demonstrations at December’s talks, calling for solutions that also tackle poverty and
inequality.
Bongani will be joined by Deborah Doane, director of the World Development Movement,
which is hosting the event.
