The Climate Tribe

The latest initiative aims to create a lasting impact using community involvement

COP28 is just two months away, and the UAE continues to roll full steam ahead in terms of climate-positive initiatives.

The latest of which comes with the launch of ‘The Climate Tribe’ by Sheikha Shamma bint Sultan bin Khalifa Al Nahyan, President and CEO of UAE Independent Climate Change Accelerators (UICCA).

The UAE-based social enterprise has long been dedicated to inspiring climate action through dynamic storytelling, immersive community engagement and radical collaboration.

Bridging the local and the global, The Climate Tribe highlights the journeys and achievements of changemakers, innovators, and philanthropists from around the world to galvanise communities in the UAE.

Additionally, they also aim to highlight the inherent sustainable practices, ecological heritage, and natural wonders of the Middle East.

The Climate Tribe comprises three main components, including an integrated multimedia platform that blends visual, audio and editorial content across 14 key themes, ranging from alternative energy and circular economy to green materials and diversity and inclusion.

The platform is complemented by a diverse programme of large-scale events and focused workshops to activate and engage key segments of society to build more conscious living habits.

The final element will be introduced in early 2024.

In tandem with the New York Climate launch, The Climate Tribe hosted a supper club in Abu Dhabi at Manarat Al Saadiyat. This intimate dinner highlighted The Climate Tribe’s goals while facilitating feedback discussions centred on accelerating positive environmental action.

The initiative will kick off its inaugural group project on 25 September with an interactive Eco-Living Workshop Series. The first of many, this sustainable planting workshop exemplifies the hands-on approach and inclusive principles the organisation will embody as it seeks to empower individuals and communities.
