Aim

We are raising funds to support Ogoni Farmers Agroecology Movement, children and families impacted by oil pollution.


Donate now to Climate Reparations to help the Ogoni Farmers Agroecology Movement clean up their land and to support health care for children impacted by oil pollution

Many of you may live in countries where there is greater financial privilege because those countries have benefitted from the wealth of extraction.  You may have easier access to flights, electricity, cars, and goods transported using fossil fuels. 

It’s become common, when purchasing flights, for there to be a donate button for offsetting the carbon emissions from your flight to projects which plant trees. Those trees may be planted but by whom and on whose land. 

If this is you, we ask you, instead, to please donate to a climate reparations fund.

We are asking for donations to begin to address the inequity of the climate crisis by supporting communities and families most impacted by fossil fuel extraction. 

The farmers living in Ogoniland, Nigeria have been impacted by fossil fuel extraction for decades, but have built powerful social movements to rebuild their lives. 

The funds will go directly to a movement, held by the grassroots farmers and families within their community. 

The farmers are ready to heal – step by step- their land, heritage and destiny. 

They have started an agroecology movement so they can share techniques to build soil health, plant trees and restore diversity to their land. 

Your donations will support the Ogoni Farmers Agroecology Movement to:

Train farmers across the Niger Delta region in how to clean their soils through a technique called bioremediation.

Your support would enable 15 farmers cluster leaders to have a payment towards their organising work and support for families with children who suffer health problems due to oil pollution

Support for the families costs £5,000

The agroecology organising work costs £750 per month x one year = £9,000

Project leads to coordinate farmer to farmer training £ 1,000

The Ogoni people have begun their long journey- you can walk with them in solidarity.
