Complete Details

The "Capture the Future" initiative arrives in Coventry this summer, inviting the younger generation to explore the intersection of environmental conservation and global peace. Organized by the UNA Coventry Branch, this storytelling showcase highlights how the protection of nature is intrinsically linked to the prevention of conflict and the promotion of social stability.

As we approach the mid-way point of 2026, the pressures of climate change are increasingly felt in urban environments. This event provides a platform for youth activists, filmmakers, and writers to share their narratives through various media. We will display a gallery of "Global Youth Storytelling" entries that focus on how local actions in the UK can support the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The event includes a keynote address from a prominent environmental journalist and a series of interactive workshops on "Peace Journalism" and "Digital Advocacy." Participants will learn how to use digital tools to document environmental changes in their communities and how to communicate these issues effectively to policy makers. This initiative aims to bridge the gap between scientific data and human emotion, using the power of story to drive legislative change. By focusing on "People and Nature," we emphasize that a healthy planet is the foundation of a peaceful society. This is a celebration of youth creativity and a call to action for the environmental leaders of tomorrow.
