Shoes in Solidarity for Climate Justice

We are pleased to invite you to ‘Shoes in Solidarity for Climate Justice!’, an event that coincides with the 67th International Human Rights Day, to mark the need for global action on climate change. The event will take place on Thursday December 10 from 3-5pm at the Girl Guides Association Compound 189/3 Changklan road, Amphur Muang, Chiang Mai 50100, Thailand.

In solidarity with the People’s Movement in Paris and the need for global action on climate change we will be putting out our shoes in the Girl Guides Garden and forming a human chain. APWLD members will be speaking on climate change, the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement and human rights.

This is an open event. We invite civil society members, artists, media, teachers, travelers, students, and community members to join us in this gathering.

To conclude and share the outcomes of our discussion we will be publishing a statement with pictures of our collective action. This statement will ensure that our message of solidarity will be part of the international dialogue to address climate change.

Cupcakes, coffee and tea will be provided. Please bring as many pairs of shoes as you can.

Please feel free to share with your networks in Chiang Mai.
