Challenge Against Climate Change

The Challenge Against Climate Change is a dynamic fundraising initiative led by Earthwatch Australia ambassador Shaan Boolell. It brings together people from all walks of life to take on personal challenges - whether it’s a half marathon, a 100km multi day run, a beach clean-up, or any activity that inspires you!

In partnership with Earthwatch Australia, Shaan aims to motivate individuals to push their limits for a cause that truly matters. Through the power of collective action, we can create real, lasting change for our planet.

Every dollar raised supports real science and conservation efforts that safeguard the future of our planet.
