Across the world, parents, grandparents, and caregivers are taking climate action to protect the kids they love, children everywhere, and our shared home. The Climate Parent Fellowship is a year-long program that supports parent-led, intergenerational, and family-centered climate engagement work.

Since 2021, we have supported 53 organizers from 25 countries through our Fellowship program. Our Fellows have come from a diversity of backgrounds. We have supported campaigners, grassroots organizers, indigenous leaders, artists, and educators to grow and develop their climate work.

Our Fellows are key organizers in the climate groups they are part of and working on one (or more) of the following:

  • Building impactful organizations: Creating strong groups capable of driving change at local, national, or global levels.
  • Influencing decision-makers: Leading bold campaigns for clean air, challenging fossil fuel interests, and advocating for a fair transition to renewable energy.
  • Driving community engagement: Developing communications and strategies that inspire parents, grandparents, caregivers, and elders to advocate for bold climate solutions.

Our Fellows receive training, mentorship, and a stipend, which aims to make their climate organizing work more sustainable. The Fellowship also acts as a peer-to-peer learning network.

Love and care for the next generation can spark incredible change, especially when those doing work receive the right support to help them develop and thrive. This is why we run the Climate Parent Fellowship program.

“This Fellowship has allowed me to not only grow as a leader but how to learn to be a good one. It was invaluable being given the time to really develop and build the foundations of the parent climate movement in New Zealand.”

“The Climate Parent Fellowship has been the kickstarter for bigger and better climate action. It has helped grow the Rodzice dla Klimatu movement. Now we are working on a lot of fields simultaneously and breaking through the climate bubble that it is so challenging to get out of.”

“It gives you confidence, it gives you the idea that there is a world, a family beyond your immediate locality, you now have a global family that you can talk to and share your experiences with. So when it says it connects, empowers and supports that is exactly what the Fellowship does.”

“It has been an invaluable incubator for creativity, problem solving and community-driven climate organizing. We have so much to learn from and with each other and this Fellowship has been an invaluable place to connect, reflect and grow new ideas and approaches.”
