Funded by the City of Long Beach Office of Climate Action & Sustainability, the ClimateLB initiative engaged youth ages 14–24 in using yli’s YPAR model to examine environmental inequities in West Long Beach. Youth researchers led every stage of storytelling and production, creating original stop-motion films that spotlighted local climate impacts and community-driven solutions. The project culminated in a public screening and interactive workshop where youth presented their films, facilitated a Q&A, and community art activities—empowering attendees to share their own climate justice stories.
