The Eco-anxiety in Africa Project (TEAP) seeks to understand and validate the experiences of eco-anxiety and environmental-related emotions in Africans.
We know from our own experience as environmental enthusiasts and climate advocates that we feel a form of eco-anxiety unique to the African population. Africa is one of the continents that has been disproportionately affected by the climate crisis, combined with biodiversity loss, plastic and oil pollution, as well as illegal wildlife trade.
