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:

  • Take part in three online training sessions.
  • Learn about climate storytelling and record your own climate story.
  • Receive training and guidance to conduct climate story interviews, and record 1–3 interviews.​
  • Connect with other Climate Stories Ambassadors from around the world.
  • Learn valuable environmental communication skills.
  • Promote an inclusive and effective movement to confront the climate crisis.​
  • Receive a certificate of completion of the Climate Stories Ambassadors initiative for sharing your own climate story and at least one climate story interview.

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 or organizational use. There is no fee for participation, but registration is required.

The three 90-minute online workshops are Wednesday October 2, October 16, and October 30 at noon Eastern Standard Time. It is preferred but not required that you attend all three workshops.
