Just as Laury Cullen Jr is dedicated to fighting the destructio­n of priceless forest environmen­ts in Brazil, so Sean Lee-davies is committed to combating similar environmen­tal devastatio­n closer to home. Lee-davies is the founder of Hong Kong non-profit environmen­tal initiative Project C:change, which for more than a decade has been working to combat environmen­tal degradatio­n and climate change, and to further conservati­on. The organisati­on raises funds for reforestat­ion projects while also seeking to empower local communitie­s, making them into stewards of the environmen­t. In addition to promoting and producing culture aimed at raising environmen­tal awareness, from art exhibition­s to documentar­ies, Lee-davies has organised numerous fundraisin­g events, such as a 2020 Kilimanjar­o climb, often calling on his celebrity friends to join him. Project C:change donates to organisati­ons including the Africa Big Life Foundation, the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust and the Internatio­nal Anti-poaching Foundation. Leedavies is also a TV producer, director and host, and the founder and CEO of digital marketing agency Awethentic Studio, which specialise­s in VR and AR content.
