Hey Everyone,
Just wanted to give a shout out to the Climate Narrative Hub for their amazing support and collaboration. As a partner, we’ve been able to tap into their expertise in shaping climate narratives with the public, which has potential to be a game-changer for our human-wildlife conflict work in Bannerghatta.
Their approach has helped us better articulate the issue and do some much needed public messaging in Bengaluru through creators and engage with new stakeholders. Using a unique collaborative approach, this messaging has been developed through mutual consent in several productive sessions—addressing problematic language, debunking myths, and clarifying common misconceptions, while also defining the urgent need for effective public messaging and awareness-building with some key stakeholders who are the custodians of Bannerghatta’s natural heritage. The stakeholders involved included local NGO’s & CSO’s like Wildlife Conservation Group & Ramkrishna Mission, The Deputy Conservator of Forests - Bannerghatta National Park as well as CSR representatives from different parts of the city. We’re seeing real results from our partnership and are excited to continue working together to drive positive change.
Thanks to the entire Climate Narrative Hub team and Rainmatter Foundation for their trust and support.
We’re stoked to be part of this continued initiative!
Cheers,
Avinash (National Director, A Rocha India)
