As we celebrated Earth Day last week, the growth of craftivism shows one facet of how contemporary climate action is evolving. Ashoka Fellow Sarah Corbett founded the Craftivist Collective to transform the way people think about, engage with, and most importantly do activism. Discover how she explored the ‘making’ within activism in this article on the BBC. Her new book, the Craftivist Collective Handbook, is out this week and includes 20 craftivism projects and tools to help everyone on their journey to powering a 'gentle protest' for climate. Find it here.
