Our Mission
Our mission is to honour the memory of Rosa, a 15-year-old girl who tragically drowned in the devastating climate-induced floods that hit Western Europe in the summer of 2021, claiming the lives of 220 people in Belgium and Germany. We advocate for meaningful climate action by sharing and amplifying Rosa’s story as well as those of other victims of the global climate crisis.
Our Organization
Climate Justice for Rosa is a non-profit registered in Belgium that is devoted to raising awareness about the human and environmental toll exacted by climate change around the world. By amplifying the voices and stories of those directly impacted by the climate crisis, we aim to persuade policymakers to take urgent and bold measures to combat climate change. Join us as we honour Rosa's memory and advocate for a more sustainable and just future for all.
For Rosa
For Rosa is a poignant one-person theatre show written by Nic Balthazar and Benjamin Van Bunderen Robberechts, directed by Nic Balthazar, and performed by Felix Maesschalck. It is a compelling narrative of friendship, coming of age, and tragic loss that propelled a teenager into a fight against the climate crisis. It is a story about and for the future.
Part of the proceeds from For Rosa will go to Climate Justice for Rosa vzw, which aims to honour Rosa's memory by continuing her fight for a more just and sustainable world.
After an exclusive preview in Brussels on 15 July 2024, For Rosa premièred at the Theater Aan Zee festival in Ostend on 3, 4, and 5 August 2024. The show will tour around Flanders and Brussels during the 2024-2025 season.
Tour dates (new dates will be added soon).
