bicycle tour

The Otesha Project (Australia): Cycling for Sustainability is currently preparing for its forthcoming five-week bicycle tour, which will see 17 tour members pedal from Brisbane to Newcastle (15 November – 22 December 2008) visiting schools to engage youth and raise awareness about environmental sustainability and social justice issues.

And if cycling over 1,000 kms without vehicle support isn't inspiring enough, the Otesha crew will astonish youth with their performance of Otesha's hilarious Morning of Choices play, which depicts a day in the life of two young individuals and the impact their daily choices have on poor old 'Mother Earth'. Targeting issues such as water, clothing, media, food and transport, the play challenges high school students to consider their life choices to ensure a positive future. Alongside the heatre performance, the Otesha crew will also present various slideshows and interactive workshops to examine some of these issues more closely.
