In this film, Judy Ling Wong, environmentalist, and President of the Black Environment Network, shares her top tips on diverse climate storytelling, including the importance of having clearly defined objectives, respecting cultural differences, and working in equal partnership with case studies.

Recognising that the most impacted in society are likely to be the least represented in the narrative on climate change, Judy Ling Wong encourages charities to understand how to meaningfully reach, listen to and involve marginalised communities.

With the years to come being crucial for climate change, how can charities effectively contribute to a meaningful dialogue and inspire audiences to act? We’ve got you covered.
