body
BACKGROUND:
“The Underwater: Broward” project is a community-led, climate action campaign that uses interactive art installations to engage Broward County residents in learning about the impacts of the climate crisis, particularly sea level rise, and motivate them to get involved in helping to protect their community.
Through a combination of school engagements, public art, and community events, “The Underwater: Broward” project is developing Community Climate Ambassadors who work together to create a thriving and resilient Broward County.
Over the last year, “The Underwater” campaign has been creating public artworks across Broward County, including murals, sculptures, and a bus wrap, as a catalyst to educate community members and motivate them to work with local elected officials to advance climate resilience in their municipalities.
