How It All Began
Launched in 2022 by JulietGrace while she was still a volunteer with the African Youth Initiative on Climate Change, the Creatives Climate Café emerged from a simple but powerful question: how do we make climate change feel real, urgent, and personal — especially for young people?
Traditional climate education often falls short in reaching hearts and minds. We recognized that art, storytelling, and performance have the power to do what data alone cannot — bridge the emotional and intellectual gap between knowing about climate change and actually caring enough to act.
Today, the dream is to make the Creatives Climate Café a thriving creative community of young artists, poets, performers, and activists who channel their talents into climate communication and advocacy.
