Institute of Inspiration
A JOURNEY TOWARDS ACTION
RISEDALE Quote
To tackle this challenge we have created the ‘Institute of Inspiration’ to provide a focus and inspire tomorrow's leaders. As part of this action we are filming a conservation and climate action documentary, plus social media channels, for COP28, led by young people from both the UK and Patagonia.
For context the young people will be discussing their climate anxiety and the conservation action they want to see in their respective communities, whilst exploring ‘nature’s stories’. The aim being to not only raise awareness of climate issues, but to also enthuse the next generation of nature lovers. This international journey is tied together by a middle aged man with prosthetic hips, cycling 2500 km, directed by the young people. His route will be determined by the environmental challenges and success stories they want him to explore.
COMMUNITY STORIES
This page is a work in progress that will be updated as the young people grab hold of their stories and as their cycling guinea pig progresses.
