The Climate Disaster Project: Thinking About Climate Change in a Human-Facing Way

The Nest · 2024-11-23

In this episode of the Nest, Martlet Editor-in-Chief Sydney Lobe sits down with Sean Holman, the founding director of the Climate Disaster Project. The CDP is an international teaching newsroom based at the University of Victoria that works with people affected by climate change to share and investigate their stories. Sean and Sydney unpack what inspired the CDP’s beginnings, the difficulty and necessity of finding points of agreement in conversations about climate change, and the vital importance of centring survivor narratives in climate journalism.
