It's time for UCT to divest! As an institution doing incredible work on climate change and the impacts we are at risk of, it makes no sense that they are investing in fossil fuels.
We will gather in front of the Jameson Hall with a giant orange X (the symbol of the fossil free movement) to take photograph, and start a challenge for others to take a photograph of themselves with an orange X in front of the African institution they want to divest.
This is part of a bigger Fossil Free South Africa campaign, that you can take part in, even if you won't be joining us on the day. Read about it here: https://fossilfreesa.org.za/2019/05/20/crossoutfossilfuels-this-africa-day-and-win/
We'll also get an update on the UCT campaign, and we'd like to hear about your plans for fighting climate change. We'll have some drinks and snacks afterwards, so please RSVP! If you need help getting there, let us know and we'll try and make a plan.
