We hosted our South African Faith Leaders Environmental Advocacy Training (FLEAT) workshop in Durban from 25th to 27th June.
Faith Leaders from across the country convened at the Gooderson Hotel for a 3-day workshop where they engaged in daily spiritual sharing; discussed links between faith and the environment, environmental challenges they are currently facing, and what faith communities and civil society can achieve by working together; participated in an ecological-footprinting exercise and mapping community networks; and screened Becoming Visible (2018), a documentary by Janet Solomon on the offshore oil and gas development off the South African coastline and its effect on our marine life.
