STORYTELLING
Climate Cultura
An infusion of positive, clean energy messaging from fresh voices is needed.
Latino communities are a key constituency that want climate action, and Latino creatives are uniquely positioned to get people’s attention and share inspiring stories of hope.
What is Climate Cultura?
A program from Generation180 that trains a cadre of Latino creatives as clean energy ambassadors to create fresh content, share local success stories, and inspire action.
Climate Cultura is a paid program for Latino filmmakers, writers, influencers, comedians, and artists from every walk of life.
Why Latino creatives
Concern about climate change
Studies show U.S. Latinos are concerned about, and willing to act on, climate change at a much higher rate than the general public.
Important voting block
Latinos are a key constituency that can be mobilized to support clean energy policies impacting their day-to-day lives.
The climate movement needs creatives
Latino messengers help their community understand the value of clean energy and apply their power to influence decisions that support a healthier future for all.
What we do
Hold in-person trainings: We host local, in-person trainings in key cities focused on clean energy topics.
Support creatives: Participants collaborate in a “writers’ room” workshop. Post training, they create and share original content with their digital audiences.
Create partnerships: We work with local organizations, advocates, and activists to amplify community-led efforts and build lasting relationships.
