Diving With A Purpose is training the next generation of youth citizen scientists to become cultural and climate leaders.
CLIENT | Diving With A Purpose
ASK | Document the stories of the DWP CARES (coral restoration) youth program in Honduras, and the Florida Keys
SOLUTION | Story vignettes, blog posts, and social video series.
CONCEPT | Our goal was to tell the stories of the youth and the instructors who made the DWP coral conservation program shine. Diving is a world that is largely unaccessible for people of color, especially for local youth based in the world’s most popular dive destinations, so it was important for us to share the nuances, personal stories and individuality of each participant. Also, telling the stories of the country and cultural exchange aspect of the program was key.
