Social Media Campaign, 2024. Turning Challenges into Opportunities
This is a collaborative project of our Artivism and Amplifiers fellowship program, which builds the capacity of young people from communities most impacted by the climate crisis and encourages meaningful collaboration between youth from the Global North and South.
This campaign aims to sensitize and engage the population of the importance of sustainability, environmental education, and proper solid waste management. With a mission to replicate these efforts within different parts of the world, the campaign seeks to highlight the diverse local realities and promote concrete actions for adapting to the climate crisis through solid waste.
YOUR CLIMATE ACTION:
Buy less. Give more. Create together.
