Umlando wokumbiwa kukawoyela e-Afrika ungowokuhaha, ukubamba iqhaza, ukucekelwa phansi kwezindawo zokuziphilisa nezindawo zemvelo, kanye nokuphulwa kwamalungelo abantu. Lokhu kuboniswa kahle nguhulumeni wezempi waseNigeria lapho eqondise khona abantu base-Ogoni, ababebhikishela ukucekelwa phansi kwemvelo okubangelwa ukungcoliswa kukawoyela kweShell Petroleum Company.
Kuyadingeka ukuthi abantu baseNingizimu Afrika bathathe isinyathelo ngokushesha, njengoba kukhona ithuba elincane lokuvimbela ukuqhuma kokusetshenziswa kukaphethiloli olwandle lwethu. Ngokunweba ukulwela kwethu ubulungiswa besimo sezulu ekuphikisaneni nokuxhashazwa kukawoyela negesi ekujuleni kolwandle, sizosebenzela izwe, kanye nezwekazi lase-Afrika wonkana, kuyilapho sivuma ukulwa ngesibindi kwabantu base-Ogoni futhi sakhela phezu kwefa lika-Ken Saro-Wiwa.
Kungaphakathi kwalo mongo lapho iphrojekthi ihlose ukunika amandla imiphakathi yendawo encike olwandle, ukuqinisekisa ukuthi izimpilo zabadobi, kanye namathuluzi abo nolwazi kuyagcinwa, futhi imiphakathi iyakwazi ukuxoxisana nabathatha izinqumo ukuze kuvikelwe izilwandle zethu kubo bonke, kuze kube phakade. .
Lo mkhankaso uzokwakhela phezu kwamanethiwekhi akhona abadobi abadobela ukuziphilisa kanye neminye imiphakathi yasogwini neyasolwandle, kanye nokuxhumana nalezo zinhlangano zomphakathi ezisebenza ngokuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu kanye nomkhakha wezamandla.
Usizo kuHulumeni ekubuyekezeni Uhlelo Lokuhlola Nokulawula Umthelela Wendawo (EIAMS) – DWEA 2011
I-Green Connection yaqanjwa uMnyango Wezindaba Zemvelo kusukela ngoFebhuwari kuya ku-August 2011 ukuze isize ukunikeza imibono kanye nocwaningo ekubuyekezeni nasekuthuthukiseni inqubo yamanje ye-EIAM. I-Green Connection isebenze ezintweni ezintathu ezahlukene:
- Isimo esikhona kanye nezincomo zokwenziwa ngcono kokumeleleka kwabantu bomkhakha we-EIA
- Ukuphatha ngokubambisana kwe-EIAM
- Ukuhlonyiswa kwemiphakathi enganakiwe
Ngo-2015, i-The Green Connection, ngokubambisana neNyuvesi yaseKapa - IES, yaqhuba izifundo zokuphathwa kwemvelo zabafundi bezinga eliphezulu lamazwe ngamazwe. I-Green Connection yasiza ekuklameni, ekuqaliseni nasekuhloleni izifundo.
