The Wiki-Green Conference is an annual event that provides a platform for discourse on the detrimental effects of Climate Change and pollution on the rights and freedoms of Ghanaians. Additionally, the conference explores the potential of utilizing open projects such as Wikimedia projects to raise awareness and identify potential solutions to these pressing issues. The conference serves as an important forum for academics, researchers, and practitioners to deliberate on these critical issues and share knowledge and insights. This year's Wiki-Green Conference will focus on the theme "Projecting Green Citizenship".

Topics in focus:[edit]

When addressing the right to a healthy environment, the UN focuses on addressing the Triple Planetary Crises which includes:

The importance of environmental justice, climate justice, and human rights centered approaches to local, national, and international action on the climate crisis
Human wellbeing in the face of environmental damage caused by pollution, with a focus on the direct impact on other human rights (i.e. pollution and health, right to water, etc)
Biodiversity and human rights — understanding how human wellbeing is dependent on a biodiverse natural ecosystem
