I would like young people to recognise that they are part of a long tradition that has been trying to the make the world a better place. A tradition that goes back as far as we have recorded history, that there are people who tried to–like Socrates, but also like Buddha and many other figures in different cultures–think more about how we ought to live in accordance with their thinking. Tried to do good in the world and that’s a tradition they can be part of. This generation really does hold the future of the planet in its hands.

Climate scientists forecast that we will see more pandemics, more sickness in people. We have about 8 million people from air pollution every year around the world. So if we want to save their lives so that they do not become ill, we have to stop air pollution. Climate protection is the best contribution to healthcare for humankind.

CEO of Global Witness

As an organization, Global Witness has to take security risks extremely seriously. We encounter quite a range of threats to our work and some of those take the form of cyberattacks, we’re regularly threatened with lawsuits by powerful companies and individuals who don’t like the scrutiny we place them under, but far and away the most serious category of threats is to those we work with in fragile and sometimes dangerous parts of the world.
