For more information on restrictions to public gatherings, consult the WHO guidelines – and make sure to stay informed about what’s happening in your area.
Remember when we were joining climate marches together, like the huge gatherings around the world in 2019? It already feels like years rather than months since we were allowed to take to the streets in big groups to protest and speak truth to power.
Because of the global pandemic, we’re maintaining physical distancing where we can. But from online actions to trending hashtags, from holographic marches, to physical protests maintaining a two metre distance, activists all around the world are continuing to stand up for the future they want to see, in increasingly creative and innovative ways. We’ve compiled a list of some of our favourites. We hope they inspire you as much as they’ve inspired us.
Let’s turn the crisis into an opportunity. This is our chance for a change. We are undivided, even if we can’t be together.
Across the globe, Fridays For Future activists have continued to demand action on climate under the hashtag #DigitalStrike
Virtual protests have had a big impact

Single activists took to the streets, while respecting physical distancing guidelines



While others used social media to symbolise solidarity while isolating
And people at home creating their own projected banners with lights and shadow
One thing is for sure, people are not letting isolation silence them. There is a post-covid world on the horizon, and we will continue to fight for the future we want to see for people and planet.
Discussion
think we can protest online but its not enough!
My comment surrounds the ethics of the clothing store Primark.
This company appears to be relishing in the ease of lockdown measures. I wander how the ethical standards they report adhering to around humane Good standards for staff in the factories they use to create the vast amount of material for their consumers.
I wander how these ethical standards are currently been checked across the world with less than 100 representatives indeed who monitors these inspectors?
In the light of the Black lives matter campaign i feel that this should include all ethnic minority groups and all those vulnerable to exploitation.
I really like the Greenpeace get creative media campaign as its a great way of involving youngsters in positivity at this extraordinary time.
