Jo-Jikum

Marshall Islands

Jo-Jikum, which means “your home” in Marshallese, is an educational organization that aims to help young Marshall Islanders respond to climate change by organizing island-wide cleanups, climate change workshops, community movie nights and other activities. The group has also established a Climate Disaster Relief Fund to help families on the islands recover from damage caused by climate change.
