Created by De Montfort University, Hidden Voices of Climate Change presents a unique avenue for youth living in different, often difficult contexts, to leverage their passion for football and community engagement to bring attention to the effects of climate change on their local environment and society.
The project will reach out and engage different football communities to gather new perspectives on climate change.
Our initial partners include:
Using the global football community to bring people together, Hidden Voices will invite young people to discuss, share, create and engage in environmental issues and give them a platform to demonstrate their views on how climate change will affect them and what should be done.
Participant clubs will be supported to create their individual stories, using mobile phones to record voices or film clips, write stories or create art. Participants will have the opportunity to contribute using English, or in their native language. University students will act as mentors and where appropriate, undertake recording, art and media creation to support the development of the website.
