Campus journalism is a powerful vehicle for disseminating climate knowledge and inspiring action at the grassroots level. With their unique perspectives and fresh insights, young storytellers are bridging gaps in understanding climate impacts, conveying community stories and narratives that truly matter.

At Climate Tracker Asia, we believe that their stories we tell can spark action, drive change, and inspire communities. Which is why we collaborated with the US Embassy in Manila to facilitate an immersive fellowship where emerging journalists can gain the necessary knowledge, skills, tools and support to produce meaningful and impactful climate journalism.
