🌿 Better stories can lead to better protection.
What happens when media professionals have the knowledge and tools to tell stronger stories about nature?
Earlier this moth, in collaboration with Wetlands International Afrique we gathered 18 media professionals and content creators in Ndagane, Senegal, for a workshop on Communicating for Nature.
Together, participants explored environmental storytelling, solutions-based journalism, fact-checking, social media... with a focus on wetlands, migratory birds and climate change.
A field visit to Palmarin also gave participants the opportunity to witness firsthand the realities on the ground and expand their knowledge.
Strong communication can help make conservation issues more accessible, amplify local voices and connect people with the solutions protecting biodiversity.
This work is part of the CREAF - Climate Resilience East Atlantic Flyway project- strengthening the resilience of critical wetlands and communities along the East Atlantic Flyway, funded by the International Climate Initiative (IKI)
