A young activist, Nicholas Omonuk has done much work in a few short years to raise awareness and build climate justice.

He has seen and lived the impact of climate changes from the front lines. He grew up in a pastoralist family in Pallisa, Eastern Uganda. He comes from the Iteso tribe, where boys take care of livestock and girls search to find water.

In December 2022, Nicholas represented the Most Affected People and Areas (MAPA) at COP27 alongside prominent young activists. In 2023, he founded End Fossil Occupy Uganda, a local climate movement demanding a phase-out of fossil fuels and a just transition for Africa.

Learning is more important than knowledge. (More here: https://imaginize.world/bill-fischer-idea-hunter-innovation-enthusiast/) Scalable learning, the challenge. Relationships matter, including weak ties. Fischer has worked extensively with Haier, the innovative Chinese appliance maker who has integrated zero distance from the customer into all their work and built a network of autonomous unites that are small, fast and closer to the customer.

Seeing Around Corners. (Rita's page https://imaginize.world/rita-mcgrath-strategies-corners/)
How do you provide enough structure and coherence that the organization operates well as a whole, but give people the freedom to really let their humanity flourish and let their ingenuity flourish? Humans are ingenious creatures, and I think that’s the skill that we are facing today. 
So organizations, not so much as machines where you turn a crank and predictable things happen, but as entities that are capable of responding to changing circumstances, I think that’s the magic.

Pieter Franken is co-founder of Safecast, one of the most successful citizen science projects in the world. 
More here: https://imaginize.world/pieter-franken-safecast-citizen-science/

Safecast was created in 2011, a few days after the Fukushima nuclear disaster. Pieter tells us how it operates, why it’s successful, and, most importantly, how it can be an example for people who really want to make a difference in the world.

Wired magazine talks about Pieter's work: "A non-profit organization is trying to transform those spontaneous initiatives into an international movement. Safecast was founded after the Japanese government failed to properly represent the scale of the nuclear fallout from the Fukushima nuclear disaster in 2011.”
