How I traded Deptford for the Amazon rainforest
As leaders and activists gather in Dubai for the COP28 climate conference - many have also been thinking about what they can do closer to home.
Kwesia, otherwise known as City Girl in Nature, grew up in Deptford in South-East London, and after a life-changing trip to the Amazon, she began a journey of turning away from her difficult upbringing, and immersing herself in nature.
She now uses her own experience and platform to connect a whole new generation of city dwellers with the great outdoors.
She set up a Youtube Channel and also a podcast called Get Birding, and she recently won Best New Voice at the Audio Production Awards.
But how did she get here?
