Climate Stories Ambassadors
Are you excited about building the climate storytelling movement? Climate Stories Project is seeking Climate Stories Ambassadors to carry out interviews and share climate stories from communities around the world.
One of the greatest barriers to an effective and inclusive climate change movement is the lack of everyday conversations between community members about the climate crisis, including observations of change, engagement with emotional responses, and envisioning positive ways forward. As a Climate Stories Ambassador, you'll receive training, structure, and guidance to communicate with others in your community about their personal responses to the changing climate.
