Planetwalk Africa.
From Cape Town toward Cairo. Walking for kindness, environmental learning, and future generations.
Walking for children.
Putting hope into action.
With Planetwalk Africa, John returns to the birthplace of humanity to collect climate observations, share kindness, and learn from the people he meets. His 6,000-mile journey from Cape Town toward Cairo connects science and education with care for children and future generations.
John began with 100 miles from Cape Point to Gordon’s Bay in February 2023.
Our work with GLOBE connects the walk with environmental science and learning. Join us in person, follow from home, or support the journey. There is a place for each of us in caring for our shared future.
