SUMMARY:Environmental Communication Course
DESCRIPTION:In 2010, the Communications Department of the UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change) recognized the need for youth to have a direct say in their own future. Together with Dr. Mark Terry, they created the Youth Climate Report ( https://unfccc.int/topics/action-for-climate-empowerment-children-and-youth/resources/youth/youth-climate-report ) (YCR), an annual video report led by youth aged 18-35 presented annually at the COOP conferences.\nThis in-person or virtual training includes instruction on Environmental Communication, Citizen Science, Citizen Journalism, and specific production techniques for producing documentary short film reports on environmental challenges, with a particular focus on climate change, for the United Nations Climate Change. This course enables youth worldwide to gain filmmaking and digital media production skills to participate in this program.\nAll films made by the participants in this course will be submitted to the UNFCCC’s Youth Climate Report for review. Those approved will be added to the program’s database and shared with delegates attending the UN climate summit COP30 ( https://unfccc.int/cop30 ) in Brazil in November, 2025 or COP31.\nA microcredit certificate will be issued to all participants from UNITAR/CIFAL York.\n
