We are a group of authors and illustrators who object to the human rights abuses and suppression of free speech carried out by the Dubai government and the continuing expansion of Emirates Airline (owned by the Dubai government) which is actively undermining efforts to avert climate catastrophe. We pledge not to appear at the Emirates Airline Festival of Literature until the Dubai government complies with the universal principles of human rights and the airline commits to reducing its CO2 emissions.
