Two local newspapers, the “Ipf- & Jagst-Zeitung” and the “Schwäbische Post” wrote about our “Climate Stories” project at the high school “Hariolf-Gymnasium”.
Climate Stories is an educational project by Fairventures Worldwide for schools in Germany. Young people from the Global South tell their personal stories in connection with climate change. In digital encounters, pupils share their concerns, hopes and dreams with climate witnesses and design solutions for a common future. This was also the case at Hariolf-Gymnasium, a high school in Ellwangen: After the pupils had dealt intensively with various facets of the topic of sustainability in their English lessons, they were given the opportunity to talk to Hilda Flavia Nakabuye – founder of Fridays for Future Uganda – personally in a video conference via Climate Stories. Climate Stories made a lasting impression, which ultimately led to the article in different local newspapers and on the school’s website.
