In Santa Marta, Peace Boat also took part in in-person dialogues and the People’s Summit, where a global coalition of civil society organisations, Indigenous Peoples, frontline communities, women, youth, and workers launched the People’s Declaration for a Rapid, Equitable, and Just Transition. The declaration frames the climate crisis as rooted in systems of capitalism, colonialism, and militarism, and calls for transformative change. It also clearly rejects nuclear power as a false solution in the just transition.  Read the People’s Declaration HERE:

Ana Sanchez spoke about fossil fuels are fueling the genocide in Palestine and calls for an Global Energy Embargo on Israel which Peace Boat also supports.
