Activating a global community of change-makers

Young people today are referred to as the "climate generation," yet many of us feel disillusioned and excluded from the decisions shaping our future.

We’re on a mission to change this. The Force of Nature Community empowers individuals, aged 16-35, to challenge the status quo, drive climate justice and feel less alone in the face of the climate crisis.

Becoming a Force of Nature

Becoming a Force of Nature is a three-part programme designed to help young people uncover their skills, passions and focus as aspiring change-makers. In this programme, you will:

  • Discover what you need to be both effective and fulfilled as a changemaker.

  • Identify new pathways for action and engaging with climate and social justice issues.

  • Learn how to bridge the gap between your vision of the future and the present day to solve unique problems.

Becoming a Force of Nature is our foundational training programme. It introduces our theory of change, which is rooted in the importance of creating space for and honouring our climate emotions. From this foundation, we explore various ways to engage in personal forms of activism via our training pathways.

“The classroom helped me forge through my toughest feelings of frustration and anger; I can now output these feelings as meaningful actions towards fighting climate injustices.”

- Patience, Kenya

“Inspiring and reassuring. I now realise the importance of re-writing my own stories, overcoming self-limiting attitudes, and believing in the power of my own agency.”

- Tim, Germany

“'Agency' was the master word of the training - I came out of it feeling supported, empowered, heard and more motivated than ever to spread the word about climate change and help others who might be feeling like I do.”

- Faciliators Training Participant

“I told [my best friend] about Force of Nature, that this is the right platform where we can be optimistic, find answers to our questions, understand how [we can] contribute in solving the problem of climate change.”

- Sumit, India

“The programme really invites you to look into what is going on internally, and uncovering some of the pressures we put on ourselves. I feel that this training had raised important questions for my journey, ones that I want to keep going back to. Having the opportunity to hear from so many young people sharing as part of this programme makes me feel connected and less alone.”
