As part of the Pathways Into Children's Illustration cohort 23-24, I've been given the opportunity to submit an illustration with the potential to be selected to contribute to a climate change anthology including work from 50+ incredible illustrators.
Ten Pathways alumni will be chosen to be included in the anthology which will be published and sent to 25 000 primary schools in the UK.
Many children and young people are anxious about the future of our world. Evidence of the climate emergency is everywhere. With politicians and big business failing to rise to the challenge across the globe, how can children and young people make a difference? - Children for Change, Pop-up Projects CIC
