Young people are integral members of their communities and should be represented and visible in the community responses to climate change. In addition to opportunities for voicing their opinions on climate issues, conditions under which young people can <strong>lead <\/strong>on climate agendas that are meaningful to them in their local communities, continue to be limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Climate Heroes Programme<\/strong><br>Climate Heroes is a collaboration between Loughborough University London, Citizens UK, East London Mosque, and young people. It is a programme that adapts creative methodologies alongside community organising practices to enhance conditions for youth-led climate leadership. To date, the programme was piloted with five young people who applied digital storytelling and co-design methodologies to listen, interpret, and create a series of stories that reflect on individual interpretation of climate crisis, everyday culture of their community, and faith. These stories brought together insights from young people\u2019s self-reflection, research with their community, and futures thinking and are both a personal narrative and a community call to action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Team<\/strong><br>Dr. Ksenija Kuzmina, Institute for Design Innovation, Loughborough University London<br>Dr. Antonia Liguori, School of Design and Creative Arts, Loughborough University<br>Afsana Salik, <em>Tower Hamlets Citizens<\/em><br>Dr. Mahera Ruby, East London Mosque<br>Young people: Arisha, Zunairah, Ameerah, Haleemah, Hamza and Shuaib.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Interested to learn more or collaborate?
