YUMI – The Whole World: The Pacific fight for climate justice

  • The Capitol RMIT 113 Swanston Street Melbourne, Victoria, 3000 Australia (map)

RMIT University's Pacific Initiative, with the Pacific Human Rights Film Festival, invites you to an evening of conversation and film about climate justice, featuring a special screening of YUMI – The Whole World, the powerful documentary about bringing the world's most urgent issue to the world's highest court.

The film follows three law students, Solomon, Vishal and Romabeth, who set out from the University of the South Pacific as part of a movement to take climate change to the International Court of Justice through the United Nations, to save their home islands from extinction. 

The evening will include a conversation with prominent climate researchers, campaigners, policymakers and leaders for the Pacific region. 

Join in on the contemplative journey of a painter and a photographer as they wander aimlessly through the Victorian bush, looking at trees and for people to paint with.
