Youth Artbook Launch Webinar – Ecocide in Our Eyes

 4th July 2025, 3:00 - 4:00 PM BST

Youth for Ecocide Law (Y4EL) recently launched Ecocide in Our Eyes youth artbook brings together poems, paintings, and stories by young people worldwide. The works speak to the pain, resistance, and hope evoked by nature's ongoing destruction. This artbook is both a call for justice and a testament to youth creativity in the face of climate breakdown: from poetry exploring Canadian oil sands scars to visual art depicting coral reef transitions, these works advocate for international ecocide law while honoring what we stand to lose.

In this webinar, contributors will share their reflections, read their poems, and discuss the stories behind their artworks, creating dialogue between artists and audience about our shared environmental future.

Speakers:

  • Léa Weimann – Co-Lead, Y4EL & Editor and coordinator of Ecocide in Our Eyes

  • Amalie Wilkinson – Former Lead Y4EL

  • Harika Yaddanapudi – Artist & Advocate

  • Clara Tomé – Co-Lead, Global Alliance for the Rights of Nature Youth Hub

  • Debbie Buyaki – Co-Lead, Y4EL

Moderator:  Niccolò Delporto, Core Team, Y4EL
