Afri Peace and Justice Conference

Feb 08, 2020 9:35 am - 4:30 pm

“Rekindling, Revitalising, Rewilding, Restoring”

Greta Thunberg has become a world leader, speaking truth to power, exposing the emperor's 'no clothes' - doing what those in power have abysmally failed to do.
The Feile Bride Afri Conference will be a response to Greta's call to action.  This will be the first year of the decade of real change.  We must rekindle the flame; revitalize our energies; rewild whenever and wherever possible and restore our awesome planet to its former glory.  We must in the words of poet Brendan Kennelly "Begin Again" because "something that will not acknowledge conclusion insists that we forever begin.'
                                                                   Joe Murray Afri
