Goulding has worked with the UN as a Global Environmental Ambassador, and has used her unique platform to amplify the voice of the voiceless, and encourage political discussions on climate change to match the ambitions of young people across the world. When asked about her message to delegates ahead of COP27 in 2022, she said: “It’s to the policymakers and world leaders to step up and be brave. The politics of all of this just needs to be braver. You know, the things that were promised at COP26 (2021) should be fulfilled and should be put into action. All we hear are just empty promises all the time. It’s just really exhausting. We honestly just want real action.”

“UN Human Rights and the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Alliance are honored Ellie will perform at the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Concert, as she has helped spotlight the growing human rights implications of climate change while pressing policymakers around the world to act,” said David Clark, Founder and CEO of the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Alliance. “When an artist of Ellie’s stature uses her platform to champion climate justice, the world pays attention.”

The Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Alliance supported by universities, youth and the myriad elements of the climate justice movement has garnered support from celebrities that include Celine Dion, Cher, Green Day, Jack Black, Leonardo DiCaprio, Barbra Streisand, Neil Young, Carole King, Annie Lennox, Cyndi Lauper, Pierce Brosnan, Billie Jean King, Camila Cabello, Laura Pausini, Joss Stone, and Kesha, to name just a few. Since launching in 2021 at the UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow (COP26), the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Alliance has emerged as a leading multi-stakeholder partnership for climate justice, bringing together human rights experts, scientists, corporate leaders, NGOs, academics, advocates, and people around the globe in the fight for rights-based climate action. 

“To face the triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution, we need to fundamentally – and urgently – rebuild our relationships with nature, our economies and society,” said Astrid Van Genderen Stort, Chief of External Engagement and Partnerships at UN Human Rights. “This requires radical and transformative change supported by a whole of society effort. By bringing together diverse elements of the climate justice and human rights movements, I hope that the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Summit – alongside other such initiatives – can advance partnerships and concrete steps to increase accountability for climate harms and catalyze human rights-based climate action for people and the planet.”

The global programme takes place online, with partner universities around the world taking turns to lead the Summit, which is being livestreamed in Oxford’s iconic Sheldonian Theatre. Alongside the concert and online global programme, a local community-focused series of events is taking place in the city of Oxford, including photography exhibitions, interactive workshops, public lectures and panel discussions. For more information on the Summit, visit: http://www.oxfordsummit.org/
