My Planet My Rights

At Rose Trust, we believe that a healthy planet is a fundamental human right. Our “My Planet, My Rights” campaign is dedicated to promoting environmental justice and ensuring that everyone, especially vulnerable communities, has access to a clean, safe, and sustainable environment. Through this initiative, we aim to raise awareness, inspire action, and drive systemic change to protect our planet for future generations.

Understanding Environmental Justice Environmental justice is the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people, regardless of race, color, national origin, or income, in the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies. It seeks to address the disproportionate impact of environmental hazards on marginalized communities and ensure that everyone enjoys the benefits of a healthy environment.

The Importance of Environmental Rights The right to a healthy environment is integral to the realization of other human rights, including the right to health, food, water, and an adequate standard of living. Environmental degradation, climate change, and pollution pose significant threats to these rights, particularly for vulnerable populations who are often the least responsible for environmental harm yet the most affected by it.

Our Approach to “My Planet, My Rights” Rose Trust’s “My Planet, My Rights” campaign focuses on three main pillars: education and awareness, community engagement, and advocacy for policy change. Here’s how we are driving this mission forward:

Community Engagement

  • Local Projects: We collaborate with local communities to develop and implement projects that address specific environmental challenges, such as pollution control, waste management, and conservation efforts.
  • Youth Involvement: Our youth programs empower young people to become environmental advocates through leadership training, volunteer opportunities, and participation in environmental projects.

My Planet, My Rights: Together, let’s protect our Earth and ensure a sustainable future for all
