A journey across the Sinai Peninsula, over the Gulf of Aqaba into the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and concluding at COP27 in Egypt.

Following the crossing of the Aral Kum in August 2021, the Sinai crossing this year will represent the 2nd expedition in the desert trilogy led by Rosie.

Each expedition explores the effects of climate change on different environments and their communities.

The Sinai expedition will focus on the impact of climatic changes on the Bedu, their traditions, culture and way of life, whilst lending them a voice to express their own experiences and how they see their future.

The desert team which includes Pom Oliver, Arabella Dorman and Lee Watts will walk some 650 km, from one water point to the next, accompanied by Bedu from Mzeina, Jebeleya and Aliquat tribes. Camels will bear the equipment and supplies.

A bespoke hourglass has been made in honour of the expedition, representing the passage of time for both mankind and the planet. Filled with desert sand, designed by Alan Chan of Hong Kong and hand-blown by leading Czech glass manufacturers Lasvit, this symbolic piece will be auctioned online with links for bidding on this website from mid-June. Launch date to be announced imminently.
