For months now, the picturesque banks of the Euphrates River have become a war zone, as Turkish jets bomb the hills surrounding the Tishreen dam. Protecting this vital water source are hundreds of protesters in need of international support, reports Make Rojava Green Again.
Make Rojava Green Again
Make Rojava Green Again reports on the conditions, hardships and potential for ecological changes in a region that is undergoing a social revolution and constantly facing military attacks on civil infrastructure and agricultural sites.
Make Rojava Green Again joined the call by Fridays For Future to participate in the Global Climate Strike on September 25, issuing the following statement.
Activists from international solidarity campaign group Make Rojava Green Again speak with Jiyan from the Union of Young Women of North-East Syria (the region known as Rojava), about women's liberation, democratic confederalism, the importance of ecology and the role of youth and young women in building a democratic, free and ecological society.
The following statement was released by Make Rojava Green Again, an international campaign aiming to find solutions to the ecological problems facing the Rojava Revolution in Northern Syria.
MRGA has been financially and practically supporting projects in Rojava in the spirit of solidarity and internationalism, and seeking to spread the word about the inspiring process in this region, which Turkey is now trying to annihilate.
Ecology — together with democratic confederalism and women’s liberation — is an essential pillar of the Rojava Revolution. What is happening in Rojava is about more than just protecting nature by limiting damage to it; it is about reestablishing the balance between people and nature.
