The HEY Campaign, a youth-led campaign on Climate Change and Health, was launched in April 2020. Initiated from Barbados, it aims to bring youth and children from around the world together, in their diversity, to advocate for shared values promoting life and dignity, rather than economic growth alone.The We Are HEY! video is available on YouTube on the channel of The Ashley Lashley Foundation, with English, French and Spanish sub-titles.Happy World Environment Day!
