About this event
Have you always wondered what a Greenpeace ship looks like? Well, here's your chance to see one up close! The Rainbow Warrior ⛵🌈, one of Greenpeace's iconic ships that travel the world to help raise awareness on different environmental issues affecting the region, will be arriving in the Philippines this November.
This year, the RW will be sailing locally in commemoration of the 10th anniversary of super typhoon Haiyan to bring a message of hope and solidarity among the most climate-impacted communities around the country, amplifying their voices and calls for justice and accountability against those most responsible for this climate crisis. RW will make its way from 📍 Tacloban, Bohol, and Metro Manila bearing witness to the heroism of climate impact survivors in calling for justice.
The first leg of the tour will be in Tacloban and she will be opening her doors to visitors on November 7, 9 and 10, 2023. Come and meet her and learn more about how you can support our work for climate justice.
Aside from the open boat tour there will also be mounting the People’s Museum of Climate Justice from November 6-10, 2023 at the Multi-purpose Bldg of UP Tacloban. It will showcase a collection of objects of memory, art pieces, and stories contributed by climate-impacted communities from Samar, Leyte, Bohol, Manila, and Mindanao, creatively narrating, illustrating, and memorializing their experiences, struggles, and hope in the face of climate change.
