Dear Friends,

This week we are coming with exciting news! In less than two weeks we are launching the Soil Manifesto and we will need your support to collect signatures. We are also sharing with you the Call for Participants of the “International Training Seminar on the Role of Intercultural Voluntary Projects in The Process of Inclusion and Participation of Young Migrants and Refugees”.
The countdown has begun! Launching the Soil Manifesto on August 9📢

It’s time to warm up the engines. In the last months, we have received inputs from lawyers and activists to create a Manifesto that takes into account existing environmental laws and movements. Kate Curtis, Coordinator of the Soil Manifesto, finalised the Manifesto and together with a team of volunteers, we translated it to German, French, Portuguese, Spanish, Russian, Italian, Indonesian, Mandarin Chinese and Arabic. The Manifesto will be available in 10 languages!

The countdown has begun! What does it mean? Next Monday we will post on social media for the ‘one week to launch’ and we will post also for ‘3 days left’, ‘2 days left’ and ‘1 day left’. We need your support to spread the word! Share the news within your organisation, family, friends, volunteers, camp leaders,… Use your social media profiles, pages, newsletter,… everything!

And, why not, save the event on your calendar to remind you that on August 9 you have to sign the Soil Manifesto!

The event is public! 🔗 https://calendar.google.com/event?action=TEMPLATE&tmeid=NHBqdGh1YjdpZGVxbmU2cm8xb2V0aWNqZXAgY19yZGM0Yzg1dWw0aTZvNGdxYjBpNnY0bHZwZ0Bn&tmsrc=c_rdc4c85ul4i6o4gqb0i6v4lvpg%40group.calendar.google.com
