Congratulations to all!

A warmer world is a more traumatic world. That’s why @uvicwriting’s Sean Holman and King's Journalism’s Lisa Taylor worked with students at U of King's College last semester to teach them how to cover climate change with a trauma-informed lens. #climatechange ukings.ca/news/telling-t…

We are incredibly grateful to the @nna_ccj for awarding the Climate Disaster Project its 2023 Special Recognition Citation for our trauma-informed work covering the frontlines of #climatechange. climatedisasterproject.com

The citation, which honours experimental journalism that transcends “categories, newsrooms and the industry,” belongs to the educators, journalists, students, and disaster-affected community members who came together to create the Climate Disaster Project.

Together, we are telling the human story of climate change so we confront its inequities and injustices. The @nna_ccj's citation is a powerful recognition that this story can be told in collaboration with disaster-affected communities.
