Wraparound support

Climate Communications Programme

Equipping young leaders to tell their own story.

The Power of Storytelling

A strong project deserves to be seen clearly. But many young leaders are doing extraordinary work without the time, funding, or design expertise to show it – and that gap can be the difference between a funder noticing a project and passing it by.

Every Iris Prize winner is invited to take part in our Climate Communications Programme. We pair each winner with a creative who works with them to build a bespoke brand identity – fonts, shapes, textures, colour -alongside a new website, training to keep it running themselves, and fundraising slide decks they can take straight to donors.

What This Looks Like in Practice

  • A visual identity that’s theirs – logo, colour palette, and brand guidelines built around their story.
  • A website they can actually maintain – designed to be simple to update themselves, long after our support ends.
  • Tools built for fundraising – including a fundraising slide deck ready to bring to donor conversations.
  • Ongoing support – the digital tools and training needed to keep everything running sustainably.
