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.
Here's what you'll do as a Climate Stories Ambassador:
Here's what you'll do as a Climate Stories Ambassador:
- Learn how to set up climate story interviews in your community
- Receive training and guidance to conduct climate story interviews
- Connect with other Climate Stories Ambassadors from around the world
- Learn valuable environmental communication skills
- Receive a certificate of completion of Climate Stories Ambassadors initiative
- Promote an inclusive and effective movement to confront the climate crisis
As a Climate Stories Ambassador, we ask that you record your own climate story and carry out and record 1-3 climate story interviews with people in your own community during a 3-month time span. Following the initial online training, we ask that you take part in two additional online meetings to discuss your progress with other Ambassadors and learn from each other about using climate storytelling to promote an effective response to the climate crisis.
The Climate Stories Ambassadors initiative is open to anyone from all ages and walks of life. You'll come away with a deeper connection to climate change as a vital personal and community issue, and make local, national, and international connections with people passionate about the climate storytelling movement.
The Climate Stories Ambassadors initiative can also be adapted for classroom use. There is no fee for participation, but registration is required.
