Bernard Kato Ewekia Taomia
Activism comes out of a place of love for his family and future generations. Growing up in Tuvalu, Bernard saw his home as paradise - a place to live an easy, happy life. Understanding and experiencing the effects of climate change has changed this safe haven to a place of uncertainty and change. Life has become harder, a matter of survival, with the likelihood of Tuvalu sinking in the near future. Bernard has made a pledge to help his island however he can.
Climate change is not an educational topic for Tuvalu but a survival issue and Bernard knows that he must fight with passion and determination to get any help they can.
