STORYTELLING
Climate Cultura
At a time when clean energy policies could be jeopardized by 2024 elections, an infusion of positive, clean energy messaging from fresh voices is needed.
Latinx communities are a key constituency that want climate action, and Latinx creatives are uniquely positioned to get people’s attention and share inspiring stories of hope. Climate Cultura puts these pieces together.
Why Latinx 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
This demographic is a key constituency to support the future success of the Inflation Reduction Act and other essential clean energy policy.
The Climate Movement Needs Creatives Like You
Latinx 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 is Climate Cultura?
A new program from Generation180 that trains a cadre of Latinx creatives as clean energy ambassadors to create fresh content, share local success stories, and inspire action. A key element of the program is its Get Out The Vote campaign (GOTV).
Climate Cultura is a paid, one-month program for Latin American filmmakers, writers, influencers, comedians, graphic designers, and artists from every walk of life currently living in the Atlanta Metropolitan Area.
The project is led by Generation180’s comedian-in-residence, Esteban Gast, a son of Colombian immigrants, who was raised in Puerto Rico and is both an award-winning stand-up comic and experienced educator.
