CONCERT FOR OUR CHILDREN
The Concert For Our Children is an event that will use music's power to foster a global movement to help address some of the emergencies resulting from the current climate crisis.
Harnessing the power of music, The Concert For Our Children will be a music event to elevate the global conversation on our broken relationship with our environment. Our vision is that the concert will feature bespoke musical performances alongside brief interventions from prominent environmental advocates. During the concert live-stream, incorporate powerful messages and excerpts from film, documentaries, and more.
The concert will have two goals. Firstly, it will bring individuals together regarding the climate crisis to mobilize climate action. As you know, the latest IPCC Report says that we have only three years left to see global emissions begin to fall to avoid the worst impacts of global warming. Secondly, in response to the many children and families that have been tragically impacted by the war in Ukraine, The Concert For Our Children will unify and mobilize concerned individuals across the US and globally and will raise money for Ukrainian families displaced by the war. Individuals watching online will be encouraged to donate to The UN Refugee Agency.
We are in the preliminary planning phases for this event and are looking to gauge interest and receive feedback. We welcome any comments you may have and hope to hear from you; you can reach us by email at usparentsforclimateaction@gmail.com.
