How they approach the work

Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.

  • Arts and Gamification for Engaged Learning
    methodology: creative_engagement_learning
    By using arts-based expression and gamification in education, we increase engagement and retention in climate and disaster preparedness programming, because creative and interactive formats resonate more deeply with youth and diverse learners.
  • Community-Centered Storytelling to Counter Climate Anxiety
    methodology: community_centered_storytelling
    By documenting everyday resilience through community-centered narratives, we reduce climate anxiety, because seeing relatable stories of action and endurance fosters emotional resilience and agency.
  • Courage-Based Climate Action
    methodology: courage_over_hope
    By grounding climate action in courage rather than hope, we sustain engagement amid crisis, because acting from emotional honesty—even in despair—fosters resilience and commitment more reliably than optimism alone.
  • Truth-Centered Journalism as Public Service
    methodology: truth_centered_journalism
    By reporting the full truth of the climate crisis regardless of political or social consequences, we counter misinformation and build public trust, because comprehensive and fearless journalism enables informed civic action.
  • Youth-Led Journalism with Mentorship
    methodology: youth_led_journalism
    By providing publishing opportunities paired with mentorship, we cultivate personal and professional growth in young people, because structured support and real-world platforms empower youth to develop voice, skills, and leadership.
