NNOCCI Week 2024

This Toolkit helps communicators explore people-centered connections to climate change, using a three-step process to develop engaging, site-relevant stories that move audiences to awareness and action. An accompanying worksheet helps interpreters implement the three-step approach. Although developed for National Park Service employees, interpreters and communicators from other organizations may find History and Hope equally useful.

Participants will practice how to effectively use bridging and pivoting to navigate challenging conversations and shape public understanding. Whether you need some practice flexing those framing muscles, or are new to bridging and pivoting, this session is for you!

Join game designer Alix Dvorak and NNOCCI member Lisa Yeager in playing an online version of Green House - a cooperative game that focuses on real-life climate solutions.
You'll have the option of observing or jumping into the game play during this session. Either way, you'll experience the game first hand, and hear how it's being used in the heart of climate training for volunteer informal educators at Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo.

Join us to hear about the positive actions and policies that are providing the hope we need to create impactful climate conversations and climate action around the world.
Adam Ratner, Director of Conservation Engagement at The Marine Mammal Center, will present the latest inspiring news followed by an interactive share-out for participants to contribute more hopeful actions as NNOCCI looks to catalog climate actions that can be used in future communications and resources.
