Decade for Action

Many of the environmental challenges we face are not constrained by national boundaries, but are shared by peoples globally.

 

we are now in the era of delivery and not promises. Arguments over targets and negotiation texts can only get us so far

Case Study

In 2018/19 EnviroFest was at the forefront of the fight against plastic pollution in Tunisia.  We helped to raise the profile of the issue through 25 screenings of 2 powerful documentaries to grass roots organizations, high schools, the general public, bilateral funding agencies and at the British Embassy with the Ministry of Environment.  There were also technical meetings between British and Tunisian waste management experts.

Partners in these events went on to launch their own plastics campaigns; one partner created an original Tunisian documentary on plastics.  With other complementary events, this helped lead to the banning of single use plastic bags in Tunisia in 2020.

Presenting our work at the EnviroFest Eco-marketplace was transformative for our organisation. The supporters, opportunities and media coverage gained are enabling us to work in new directions and on a much larger scale.
