Mitzi Jonelle Tan, nada en Filipinas, é unha activista xuvenil pola xustiza climática de Filipinas.[1][2][3][4][5] Vive en Metro Manila, Filipinas.[1][6]

Traxectoria[editar | editar a fonte]

O activismo de Tan comezou en 2017 despois de reunirse con dirixentes indíxenas no seu país. Isto fixo que se decatara de que a acción colectiva e o cambio de sistema son necesarios para crear unha sociedade máis xusta e verde.[1]

En 2019, Mitzi Jonelle Tan cofundou Youth Advocates for Climate Action Philippines (YACAP),[7] e os Fridays For Future (FFF) de Filipinas,[1] tralas manifestacións climáticas en todo o mundo.[6]

Tan é a coordinadora principal,[8][9] e portavoz internacional[1][10][11] de YACAP. Tan tamén é activista e portavoz de Fridays for Future en Filipinas.[12] Liderou folgas de acción climática na Universidade de Filipinas.[9][13]

Tan formou parte da iniciativa para realizar folgas escolares polo clima en liña no inicio da pandemia da COVID-19.[3]

En setembro de 2020 Tan formou parte dun movemento para volver ás protestas climáticas 'seguras'.[14]

A finais de 2020 Tan foi unha das voluntarias que organizou Mock COP26,[15][16] que contou con delegados de 140 países.[17] Tamén deu unha charla en Mock COP26 sobre como ser unha activista que vive onde o activismo é equiparado co terrorismo.[18][19] Ó falar do Mock COP26 a The Guardian, Tan dixo que "Están a asegurarse de que as voces das áreas máis afectadas se amplifiquen, e asegúranse de que teñamos un espazo e que non estamos só tokenizados."[20]

Tan foi unha das activistas que participou na campaña Fridays For Future 'Pass the Mic', tamén a finais de 2020, para pedir que Attenborough pase a súa conta de Instagram ós defensores da xuventude, particularmente do Sur Global.[5][21][22]

En novembro de 2020 Tan respaldou a serie de concertos internacionais Climate Live que se celebrarán en 2021.[23]

Tan inspirou a outros, como a activista de xuvenil indonesia Salsabila Khairunnisa.[24]

Tan xunto con outros catro activistas dos países MAPA (Most Afected Peoples and Areas, en galego Pobos e Áreas Máis Afectadas), Eyal Weintraub da Arxentina, Disha A Ravi da India, Kevin Mtai de Kenya, e Laura Verónica Muñoz de Colombia, xunto con Greta Thunberg, anunciaron unha nova onda de folgas climáticas.[25] Ó anunciar as folgas climáticas, Tan pediu "obxectivos anuais vinculantes de carbono e recortes inmediatos das emisións en todos os sectores da nosa economía."[26] Tamén dixo: "Se non actuamos agora, non teremos a oportunidade de conseguir eses obxectivos para 2030 e 2050 dos que os dirixentes mundiais seguen falando."[27]

A organización de Tan entrou en acción despois dos furacáns consecutivos do 2020 para axudar ás comunidades máis afectadas, incluso alimentando ós famentos e falando con eles sobre os problemas ós que se enfrontaban.[28]
