Case studies


Inspiring stories from the frontlines of climate change

Discover how communities in the Caribbean and Finland are finding solutions to the greatest challenge of our time – climate change.

The actions and voices of these communities are unique - each responding to localized contexts and impacts - but their collective goal is the same: to create a thriving future on a changing planet.  Explore why these communities aren't standing on the sidelines, where they find inspiration and success, and how they are building resilience through practical action.

An interactive web experience.

Film workshops


In partnership with local community organizations, OPOE provides low-cost film workshops that help communities share and disseminate their own stories.

The workshop was fantastic, the topics covered were enough to give persons in this small community a great head start towards making films that can bring about change. I personally learned a lot and certain areas were made clearer to me.
