Beginning January 2013, the IPF will launch a co-site called (IPF GREEN) that will focus primarily on climate change and environmental issues affecting the Global South.
IPF Green will gather and distribute content concerning the human rights perspective of climate change, the politics and economics behind it, the historical context shaping these discourses, food sovereignty, climate patterns, climate refugees, fossil fuels and renewable energy, technology for change and finally to stories about we, the people being affected by climate change.
IPF GREEN is looking for volunteer writers and bloggers to contribute content for the site as we embark on this journey. While IPF welcomes applications from writers from the Global North kindly note that priority will be given to young writers and bloggers from the Global South. Please email your resume, a writing sample and kindly specify your main areas of interest (with regards to the environment and climate change) that you would like to write about to;
