The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization has recently unveiled an exciting opportunity: a call for proposals centered on a media training workshop paired with a field visit exploring environmental, climate, and heritage themes.
This initiative aims to strengthen capacities in communicating about intersections between heritage conservation and climate challenges, offering participants both practical training and immersive learning in real-world contexts.
Participants will have the chance to refine their media skills—working on how climate change and environmental issues affect cultural heritage, and how those stories can be told powerfully and accurately. The training offers a hands-on approach, blending classroom-style learning with an on-the-ground experience where participants can see heritage sites up close and translate those encounters into compelling media outputs.
Through this dual-format programme, storytellers, journalists, and heritage professionals are encouraged to deepen their understanding of how climate pressures are reshaping heritage landscapes—and how the media can play a crucial role in raising awareness, building resilience, and inspiring action. The field visit component enriches the training, grounding theoretical knowledge with tangible experience among threatened heritage environments.
This call opens a gateway for individuals and organizations keen to explore the delicate balance between environmental change and cultural legacy. Whether you’re a broadcaster, photographer, content creator, or heritage advocate, this opportunity offers a bridge between skills development and real-world engagement—empowering participants to become effective voices for heritage and climate resilience.
