Climatic Peace and Foras Khadra are proud to launch Climate Voices, a six-month regional program designed to empower a new generation of Arabic-speaking climate communicators across the Mediterranean.

If you are passionate about climate change, media, storytelling, or digital content creation — this opportunity is for you.

About the Program

Climate Voices addresses a critical gap in the region: the shortage of skilled Arabic-language climate communicators capable of engaging the public on environmental challenges in an accurate, ethical, and culturally relevant way.

From January to June 2026, the program will operate across:

Algeria, Egypt, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Palestine, Syria, Jordan, and Tunisia

Through immersive national training camps, a regional digital campaign, and a final summit in Egypt, participants will gain the knowledge, tools, and network needed to transform climate communication in the Arab Mediterranean region.

✔ Mentorship from climate and media experts
✔ Participation in a regional digital campaign (#ClimateVoicesMENA)
