STORIES INTO THE WOODS

7–8 May | 13:00–14:30 UTC | Online

ONLINE MEDIA SEMINAR
From climate to culture, forests are at the heart of it all. But how do we tell their stories in ways that stick?

On 7 and 8 May 2025, join us online for the Media Lab: Stories into the Woods to sharpen your forest storytelling skills.

In this two-day media lab, join journalists, media professionals and scientists and learn how to craft compelling stories that connect people and forests, harness technology and data and master audience engagement.
