On October 28, 2024, Corporate Accountability and Public Participation Africa (CAPPA) and the United States-based Corporate Accountability (CA) will unveil the Africa Make Big Polluters Pay (MBBP) Storytelling Platform, where African communities at the frontlines of climate change and extractive industry devastation can share their stories and experiences in the pursuit of climate justice.
The MBBP Storytelling Platform will illuminate the devastating impacts of transnational corporations’ extractive activities, debunk false solutions, and champion real and sustainable alternatives in Africa.
Modelled after a virtual fireplace, the website will be a monthly digital gathering where regional MBPP partners and frontline communities will meet to share their experiences, breathing life into the struggles for climate justice, humanizing the issues and inspiring others to join the cause.
Visitors to the website will meet the people at the heart of the climate crisis, as they share their stories of resilience, resistance, and hope in the face of environmental challenges caused by corporate exploitation.
