UN Human Rights presents Ellie Goulding

Superstar Ellie Goulding will perform at the United Nations Human Rights-supported ‘Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Concert’ being held at the New Theatre Oxford in Oxford, UK on 06 June 2025.

This concert hosted by United Nations Human Rights and the University of Oxford – aims to call urgent world attention to the escalating human rights implications of the climate crisis.

Goulding has worked with the UN as a Global Environmental Ambassador and has used her unique platform to amplify the voice of the voiceless and encourage political discussions on climate change to match the ambitions of young people across the world. 

When asked about her message to delegates ahead of COP27 in 2022, she said: “It’s to the policymakers and world leaders to step up and be brave. The politics of all of this just needs to be braver. You know, the things that were promised at COP26 (2021) should be fulfilled and should be put into action. All we hear are just empty promises all the time. It’s just really exhausting. We honestly just want real action.”

“UN Human Rights and the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Alliance are honored Ellie will perform at the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Concert, as she has helped spotlight the growing human rights implications of climate change while pressing policymakers around the world to act,” said David Clark, Founder and CEO of the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Alliance. “When an artist of Ellie’s stature uses her platform to champion climate justice, the world pays attention.”
