Mission & Vision

Vision & Mission

Animal Wisdom Speaks aims to amplify the voices of animal spirits through storytelling, fostering healing and empowerment while calling for change and climate action.

By hosting storytelling events and visiting kindergartens and schools Animal Wisdom Speaks is creating awareness for climate change, climate action and environmental issues.
 
Long-term Objectives
 
By collecting and translating stories, myths, and wisdom as well as art from diverse ​cultures for future generations in their original languages Animal Wisdom Speaks aims to create a database and library honoring and preserving our collective cultural heritage.
 
By creating an e-learning environment using e-learning platforms, micro-learning-apps and digital storytelling Animal Wisdom Speaks is weaving the traditional ways of storytelling, teaching, gamification and AI together.

​Whilst the stories will also be published in soft and hardcover books, new digital formats will be used to make the collected wisdom, stories and myths easily available.

On Building an Organisation or A Good Story is Alive

Work in progress. To be updated. Subject to change.

Yes. It is that easy. Admit that it takes time, oh yes, there will be changes, many of them, not everything you have started today will be done the day before yesterday, or even look the way you have planned it out and above all - say good bye to perfectionism.
​ 
Mistakes, mishaps, errors and a simple I need to learn more because I do not have enough of a clue will be very much part of it. A good and living story is like an iceberg.

​Animal Wisdom Speaks is a living organism and a living story and as such an organisation that will walk barefoot like a child, bear the clothes of an adult and one day read a book in a rocking chair sharing its stories with others.
