In a powerful display of unity and determination, Youth for Green Communities organized a University Day of Actions on July 3, 2023, in two key locations in Uganda: Hoima and Kampala.

This initiative aimed to shed light on the project's devastating impacts on local communities and the environment while also advocating for change.

We are at a turning point: this unprecedented ruling brings us all closer to a ceasefire and a just peace for the people of Palestine and Israel.

Amidst the turmoil of 2023, we steadfastly hold onto the discipline of hope while knowing that joy is found within the core of resistance. From the streets of Southeast Asia to university halls in the United States, we offer a glimpse into our shared odyssey alongside valiant activists, artists, and organizers across the globe.
