Forests are everywhere, standing tall for climate action, economic stability and human well-being. Yet, they remain at risk – often misunderstood, sometimes overlooked and always essential.
Communicators play a crucial role in decoding the science, revealing hidden narratives and making forest stories resonate with diverse audiences.
In this two-day media lab, experts will walk you through how to craft compelling stories that connect people and forests, harness technology and data and navigate audience engagement.
Held between GLF Forests 2025 and Forests, People, Planet, and in the buildup to the decisive climate COP30, this lab will sharpen your skills in working with scientists and creating powerful forest stories.
