Our Collaborative Vision:
We recognize that the power of art and storytelling can amplify the lived climate experiences of women, and shape how people think and make decisions. When looking at the future we must account for the reality that climate change is a gendered issue:
Women are disproportionately harmed by the impacts of climate change.
Women are more likely to harbor greater awareness of climate change.
We envision a future where climate decisions inherently embrace long-term thinking and lead to equitable action, centering the voices of those most impacted and informed.
By combining the strengths of our organizations, we aim to harness the catalytic, culture-building impact of art; promote creative and critical thinking around climate justice; and inspire positive change towards a safer, more joyful, and more equitable world. Join us in envisioning this future and sharing what women leaders from around the world hope to leave for future generations.
Funding Request:
We are seeking funding to support this joint project and its corresponding initiatives that leverage our collective strengths. These projects include but are not limited to:
- An arts and storytelling campaign featuring the personal narratives of SHE Changes Climate’s 10 Ambassadors and corresponding illustrations produced by Climate Creativity’s artists, to be featured in virtual, print, and in-person exhibition formats targeting strategic international sites, such as at NY Climate Week, the UN Summit of the Future, and COP29’s art exhibition space.
- Coordinating an accompanying advocacy campaign designed to ensure gender equality is prioritized in climate negotiations.
- Collaborative workshops and events that blend climate storytelling, art, and gender equality advocacy.
We kindly request your support to bring our shared vision to life, amplify gender justice in the climate space, and advance long-term solutions designed by those most impacted and informed. In doing so, you’ll be investing in critical culture-building efforts designed to advance society toward a just, livable, and desirable future.
