34. Aiming to change society with Instagram
Manage episode 313024633 series 3256228
In this episode we will get to know the Dublona Journey participants Maria Cantore, who tunes in from Argentina, and Hajar Bencheikh, who calls Casablanca and Lyon her home. While Hajar currently works in consultancy for clients in the energy sector in Paris, Maria leads an organization in Argentina and is politically active for climate action. Together they wanted to create a channel to connect people to feel empowered. Their project, which unfortunately will not continue, aimed to challenge their community and to visually convert the volume of participants into the impact they reached through this collective action. The long-term goal was to trigger behaviours and changes in society. Hopefully Hajar and Maria will take on this project again, and make the instagram account happen. Tune in to discover how sea level rise, a direct effect of global warming, has shifted Hajar's mindset and what ideas the two have for being active in climate action.
Maria recommends the podcast Outrage and Optimism by former UNFCCC Executive Secretary Christina Figueres (2010-2016): https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/outrage-and-optimism/id1459416461
