350 Vanuatu

350 Vanuatu 
350 Vanuatu 

350.org is a global climate movement a nd 350 mean safety from the climate crisis.
350 Pacific is a youth led grassroots network working with communities to fight climate change from the Pacific Islands. 350 Pacific works with organizers across 15 Pacific Island nations to highlight the vulnerabilities of our island countries to climate change while showcasing our strength and resilience as a people. We work through existing networks and with a range of partner organisations who share in our vision for the Pacific and the planet. 

Vanuatu as part of the other Pacific Island is also Vulnerable to the impacts of Climate Change but has rich diverse culture within it's communities. 350 Vanuatu is seeking to implement the 350 Pacific strategy with a mission to empower and educate action-focused Pacific Island young people to lead creative actions to:
·         Make their villages and towns more resilient to a changing climate.
·         Join the global movement that is pressuring big polluters and the fossil fuel industry and get the world back on track to 350ppm.
·         Build stronger, more connected fossil free communities across the Pacific; not just within the Pacific Islands, but across the world.

350 Vanuatu Warrior
The Vanuatu Phase 2 events proposed here include both mobilizations and summits and are directly linked to our campaign strategies and are critical movement moments. This proposal gives Vanuatu 350 the opportunity to grow the community of engaged climate activists, empowering new leaders with skills and strategic plans, and mobilizing young leaders. Importantly, the proposed plan submitted here is not a series of isolated events.  Rather they are a chance to build on or launch large-scale climate campaigns and empower people to lead local action groups that can contribute to escalating action and supporting Vanuatu’s nation and the Pacific’s regional climate strategies.
Our National and Regional Key Priorities over the coming three years will use the Warrior theme across our initiatives, and also continue with the campaign name of “100% Possible to be Heard”.  350 Vanuatu’s top priorities are:
1.       Embolden Pacific Island leaders and government leadership and interventions on the international stage on climate change
2.       Take direct action to challenge the Fossil Fuel Industry
3.       Build and display cultural strength of the Pacific Islands
4.       Empower young people to build local resilience to climate change impacts
5.       Tell and share stories from both the frontlines of climate change impacts and the movement response
