- W2483243847 abstract "The impacts of climate change are being increasingly felt around the world, and especially in Africa. Individuals and leaders at all levels have the power to directly influence human actions that induce climate change and that contribute directly to environmental degradation. Youth, in particular, are simultaneously the most oppressed and the most powerful potential agents of change capable of reversing the downward spiral of environmental destruction. To address the pressing issues of sustainable development and simultaneously facilitate innovative educational approaches, I conducted the Green Leaders of Africa’s Future (GLAF) project with my colleague, Yvette Triscot,1 a participatory action research (PAR) project from 2010 to 2012 with a small group of middle-school-aged students in Senegal, West Africa. In this chapter, I describe the genesis of the GLAF project, initially teacher-driven, which eventually evolved into a participatory project. I describe the environmental, geographic, postcolonial, and cultural contexts in which the project was situated. I introduce some of the experiences, challenges, and triumphs of this group of young leaders as they wrestled with age and gender conflicts and cultural rifts in their attempts to advance sustainable development in their school and communities. I foreshadow the role I unintentionally played in these conflicts as a result of my subconscious negation of my power, cultural privilege, and personal biases." @default.
