Slovenia on the route of a global climate mission
Jaydip, born in India and currently living in Malta, will visit Slovenia from 16 April to 5 May 2026 as part of his route through 20 countries in Europe and Asia, a journey expected to last approximately 1.5 years. The mission’s goal is to increase awareness of climate change, promote sustainable living, and encourage environmental protection through direct interactions with people and media activities.
“I walk because the planet has no legs to defend itself. If we do not start acting now, future generations will pay the highest price,” says Jaydip.
During his walk through Slovenia, Jaydip will visit schools, universities, local communities, and media outlets to speak about the consequences of climate change – forest fires, floods, droughts, and the urgent need to protect biodiversity and natural resources. Slovenia, rich in forests and aquatic ecosystems, is particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, making this stage of the journey especially important.
One journey, a global message
The mission aims to deliver a climate message to more than 2 billion people worldwide through direct encounters, media outreach, and documentation of the journey. Jaydip wants to show that individual actions can have a global impact and that environmental protection begins with everyday choices.
Who is Jaydip?
Jaydip comes from a small village, Bhavnagar, in the Indian state of Gujarat. Although he began his educational path in finance and management, he quickly discovered that his true passions were travel, nature, and social work. As a certified trekking instructor, he has worked with one of the largest trekking organisations in India and has volunteered with non-governmental organisations.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, he embarked on a 182-day solo journey across India on foot and by hitchhiking, with almost no money. This experience completely transformed his perspective on life and on humanity’s responsibility toward the planet. Since then, he has been actively involved in environmental protection efforts in both India and Europe. The Slovenian stage is a key part of his personal mission for Mother Earth.
