He as usual, gave each session he participated in the best of his shots and hope to really see a significant impact in the global attainment of SDG6.

Like he mentioned during the Youth Session on 24th March, “When us the young people are encouraged and involved in the management of Water and Sanitation through governance/policies, SDG6 will work for the achievement of all other SDGs”.

The fact that a fossil sector executive will be in charge of the 2023 climate change negotiations outrages Rescue Mission International (ReMI). On Tuesday, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) named Sultan al-Jaber, the president-designate of the 2023 Climate Change Conference and the head of oil giant Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) (CoP28). The position was filled at a time when the state-owned Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), of which he is CEO, was looking to expand upstream crude output by entering into concession agreements for additional exploration and production in order to develop oil resources. This is significant because Jebel Ali in 2020 had been found to contain more than 80 trillion cubic feet of gas resources. This is appalling behavior that shows a complete disdain for the CoP procedures and the ongoing climate change negotiations over the past 30 years. We demand that Dr. Sultan Al Jaber resign immediately and condemn it in the strongest terms imaginable. ~ Ibrahim Tuzee Abdul-Raheem (Co-Founder and Head of Climate and Environmental Governance Cluster)

On Wednesday, 20/07/2022, our Co-Founder, Mr. Ibrahim Tuzee Adul-Raheem spent some time with some students of the Anbariya Islamic Senior High School in Tamale, Northern Ghana. Where hetook them practically through Environmental Conservation/Protection ( Ecology and importance, Ecosystem and the benefits/services, The Environment, Conservation of the Environment and the importance, local Environmental Challenges, Waste Management, importance, and effects, Single-use Plastics and its Damages, Environmental Campaign and Advocacy, it’s importance, and types) and Climate Change (The Sciences, Causes, Effects, Mitigation, and Adaptation). As these students prepare to embark on their Community Impact Challenge Project, we have no doubt that, they will achieve marvelous results with the guidance given them. We only can change the narrative of Environmental Conservation if we get the youngsters to ACT and that TIME to act is NOW!

ReMI Farms, a subsidiary of Rescue Mission International (ReMI) together with its associates/partners is currently receiving applications from young men and women who have an interest in Soyabean production.

The project is aimed at supporting youngsters (graduates and non-graduates), and the disabled across the five (5) Northern Regions with seeds and all other inputs which will ease their burden of going into commercial production.
