Our Stories
We will follow the stories of factory workers, health care providers, farmers, mothers, organizers, and politicians across national boundaries. This compelling media combined with our extensive new media network of seventeen blogs in fifteen different languages and our partnerships with major media outlets on and offline will spread these stories far and wide.
Factory Workers employed or formerly employed by the fossil fuel industry in areas like Detroit, Appalachia, and China. Images in the US will show abandoned car factories and flattened mountains after hundreds of years of economic “growth.” We will continue on to north and south China that are bustling with work in the Coal and Auto Industry. This juxtaposition is important to show just where this sudden burst of economic capital leads your people.
Health care providers in Brazil, Mexico, and all over Africa are seeing the rapid spread of disease. They have taken care of climate refugees in New Orleans and Bohla Island. We will show the world their hospitals, we will talk to their patients, and hear their expertise on what we can expect in the next few years.
From Australia, to the Middle-East, to India the landscape is changing and local Farmers are struggling to change with it. How can farmers do their job feeding their communities, their families, their countries, if they don’t have enough water, or if their lands are constantly flooding? We will photograph their lands and the communities they serve.
According to UNICEF, women are bearing the burden of this food and financial crisis. And so we will gif e a platform to the care takers of our world: Mothers. We will hear their stories, their experiences, listen to their concerns, see their homes, their children, and their communities
We will also document our work as Organizers. The International Youth Delegation has one of the most unique voices as inheritors of this earth. Our work is innovative and creative. Documenting best practices learned our story invaluable.
Politicians: Who are our champions? Who is falling behind? What are they saying? Where are there offices? Do they hear their constituents most impacted by the climate crisis.
