A Woodbrooke course highlighting the campaign to make ecocide an international crime starts this weekend. The two online sessions will be run by Hilary Saunders who has been working to raise awareness of the campaign for several years. The idea for the course emerged when Bainito Wamalwa, clerk of Friends World Committee for Consultation (FWCC)’s Africa Section, and Hezron Masitsa, justice and peace secretary for FWCC, met with Kenyan representatives from the Stop Ecocide International campaign. FWCC is running the course in partnership with Woodbrooke.
