As part of our effort to strengthen the relationship among activists and organizers in the Asia-Pacific region, DGR Asia-Pacific started an online ecological conference. Asia Pacific Ecological Conference is an initiative in which activists share their experiences, knowledge and analysis regarding an issue that they are working on. The conference can be held in-person or online. We hope to build solidarity among activists through this.
In this initiative, we talk to activists working on the ground for issues on their areas. We talk about their experiences, their challenges and their insights. Hope you find this inspiring!
