Welcome to “The Change Makers” – a weekly video series.
In this series our Change Makers share their stories, their thoughts, their ambitions and their actions to leave our world a better place – to be a Good Ancestor to future generations.
Our planet is experiencing catastrophic environmental harm and it requires us to Think Long Term, beyond our lifetimes, to evaluate our choices and to take actions to ensure a sustainable and healthy future for all.
The stories of those leading the change – The Change Makers – those thinking and acting with long-term vision, are inspirational.
Inspired, we can ask ourselves, “what can we do to be Better Ancestors?”
This week, Better Ancestors visits Peter Richardson with Aotearoa Water Action.
Access to water is fundamental, without water there is no life. And yet across Aotearoa and beyond exploitation of water for profit is accelerating.
Aotearoa Water Action (AWA) provides support to communities who are battling to protect water security in their region.
AWA is an example of community coming together, resourcing and supporting each other and confronting a massive problem.
Aotearoa Water Action advocates for life, it’s as vital as that.
For the People - For the Planet - For the Future.
