Live on the Frontlines

Re-Earth Initiative’s platform to recognize the resilience of frontline communities around the globe; learning and strengthening one another through art and storytelling

Recognizing the impact of community efforts, knowing that they (and us) are valued and that no one is alone in their (our) fight is what fills it with resilient joy. And joy, in the face of a bitter crisis, is what reminds us that giving up is not an option because home is always worth it.

It’s why our Live on the Frontline projects are guided by the common themes of community resilience & radical hope, and the importance of storytelling in shaping identity and building grassroots power.

Starting as a web series where speakers from frontline communities were invited to conversations about their struggles, solutions, and hopes—Live on the Frontlines transformed into a collection of audiovisual creations that went on to be showcased at UNFCCC’s COP27.
