Communicating Climate Heritage Toolkit (Contains: Advocacy Guide, Mission Statement, Resource Mapping and Analysis)
About the Resource
At the heart of this resource is the belief that anyone can be an advocate. The Advocacy Guide provides tips to strengthen your advocacy to a range of audiences, including peers, workplace leaders, and policymakers. It can be used by cultural heritage professionals, students, volunteers, and anyone else with passion for the role of culture in climate action.
For those already doing this work, this Advocacy Guide can help you take the next step towards amplifying their message. It can help form an approach to connect your ideas, research results, and recommended actions with others – within the Sector and beyond.
The Advocacy Guide is supplemented with additional resources. Use the Climate Heritage Mission Statement to help form the backbone of your advocacy approach. The Resource mapping and analysis carried out by the working group assessed currently available climate heritage resources with a focus on their intended audiences and main call to action.
Use these materials to help add an engagement, communication, and advocacy element to your work.
