New Voices on Climate Change
is an innovative initiative of Global Justice Ecology Project, the goal of which is to broaden the climate debate by amplifying the voices of peoples around the world who are already being impacted by climate change. In doing so, the initiative will:

1)    Empower peoples and communities already being impacted by climate change by promoting their stories throughout the world.
2)    Empower people to become active in the climate movement by humanizing and personalizing climate change, which is otherwise an often daunting, disempowering and abstract problem.

New Voices on Climate Change is funded through a generous grant from the Foundation for Global Community.
