Project details
What we need
- A compilation of research on a specific topic (e.g. industry best practices, literature review, media contacts, industry trends, etc.) including a list of sources
- Recommendations on areas for further exploration/research
- Note: This project is not designed to be used for prospect or grant research
Additional details
We just received a contract to further develop our Impact Stories program and to highlight amazing women from the Global South who are leading on climate change solutions. We'd love to have an extra pair of hand in developing a list of amazing women to consider for the exhibit.
What we have in place
- We currently have examples of past stories and goals for what we are looking f, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a vast climate network of organizations/institutions/etc, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,239 , allowing us to provide an Impact Artist residency this summer to an artists using their creativity to spark change.
We are showcasing the stories of women from around the world leading on climate to show they are leaders and not victims in their community. We are doing this in partnership with the United Nations, as well as many other partners.

Our mission
We are building a global cultural movement to inspire BIG, BOLD, and BEAUTIFUL climate actoin. We are a creative, action-oriented community of arts, policy, science, communications, and business experts committed to creating and sharing innovative approaches to tackling social and environmental challenges.
What we do
The Human Impacts Institute was founded in 2011 and over the course of the past seven years, HII has provided over 1,200 hours of environmental educational programming across several core themes. The themes include stewardship-based initiatives such as Tree Care, environmental justice public resources such as the Impact Hours series, and climate communication programs such as the Creative Climate Awards, a competition bringing climate-inspired art to NYC audiences and beyond. HII's framework focuses on using arts and creativity as a tool for strengthening traditional environmental action methods. HII has developed environmental programs on a variety of topics for diverse audiences. Programs include youth environmental leadership intensives, community environmental workshops, local estuary and tree care stewardship opportunities for all ages, and more. These programs strive to integrate creative projects such as film and video, graphic design, tree guard building, and more.
We know there's a gap between knowing, understanding, and taking action. By building diverse communities and connecting you to solutions in beautiful and engaging ways, we inspire you to take action by making issues personal and practical to your life.
