Paul Knox Clarke speaks about the importance of climate proofing our humanitarian activities at the Dóchas annual conference.

“We must think of humanity and nature together when we look to the future. This will need a mindset change.”

“We talk of a climate emergency. But it’s really a whole earth emergency….this earth emergency requires a humanitarian revolution.” 🌎- Hugo Slim at #DochasAt50 panel on adapting humanitarian action in a climate emergency.

Self Help Africa’s Global Carbon Coordinator Zach Lager speaking at #DochasAt50 on the need for a long-term vision for carbon financing & the importance of partnerships & localising benefits here.

“You know that your neighbour is alive, but you don’t know how they are living.” - really interesting analogy from Professor Attiya Waris at #DochasAt50 , on the issue of foreign debt contracts not being made public.
