Small World Stories, Communications for Social Change

🌱 Las historias ayudan a cambiar el mundo 🌍, especialmente en la lucha contra el #cambioclimático. Cuando compartimos relatos sobre soluciones innovadoras y personas que lideran el cambio, no solo informamos, sino que inspiramos y movilizamos. 💚 Historias personales. 💡 Soluciones locales. 💪 Esfuerzo colectivo. Cada una de estas narrativas puede transformar el miedo y la ansiedad en esperanza. Y la esperanza es una estrategia que necesitamos para enfrentar los desafíos climáticos más urgentes. Como dijo la científica Katharine Hayhoe en una entrevista con Radio Davos: “La definición de esperanza no significa un pensamiento positivo, sino reconocer que hay un camino desde donde estamos hoy hasta dónde podríamos estar mañana si abordamos el cambio climático juntos”. Al centrar nuestra comunicación en los avances y en quienes los lideran, creamos una red de motivación que invita a más personas a sumarse al cambio. 👉 Lo contamos en este blog traducido por Regina Dewey: https://lnkd.in/gzuUkYvR #NarrativasDeCambio #AcciónClimática #ComunicaciónClimática #recursos
