Puppet Parade for Climate Action: A 20,000km Trek
The team behind Little Amal, the refugee awareness puppet, is back with an ambitious project: The Herd. This 20,000km trek across continents features dozens of animal puppets, aiming to spark a global conversation about climate change.
"Climate change is the biggest story," artist, Amir Nizar Zuabi, said.
The Herd, unlike technical reports, offers a visceral experience.
Starting in West Africa in 2025, the core herd representing Serengeti animals will be joined by local puppets at each stop, creating a growing symbol of interconnectedness.
This emotional journey aims to foster deeper engagement with the climate crisis, inspiring action through the plight of migrating animals and the delicate balance of ecosystems.
