This is our home

The Pacific has led the call for climate justice for decades, and as artists we are the messengers of our reality.   Generations of Pacific peoples have inherited the ocean and these islands from our ancestors for over 3,000 years and despire enduring everything from colonisation to war and pestilence, they were able to hand it over to their descendants, just as we will too. This Is Our Home: Pacific Artists for Climate Justice unites indigenous artists and storytellers from across the Pacific to advocate for climate action and a fossil free future in order to preserve our homes. We use the power of the arts, culture, poetry and music to create change and compelling narratives, weaving together traditional forms with modern, digital storytelling. This Is Our Home is a major storytelling project of the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty Initiative and a key component of its Pacific campaign, where the momentum for the global push for several key climate policies began. The coming years in the Pacific are the most critical period we have ever faced. the type of ancestor we become will depend on what we do now.                             We will not go quietly into the sea.
