CHANGEMAKERS 01 | E Windemuth, WaterBear Network

Welcome to CHANGEMAKERS with Catriona Oliphant, a new podcast series brought to you by CHROMERADIO in collaboration with the MONTHLY BAROMETER. CHANGEMAKERS was inspired by a series of conversations I had this autumn at the MONTHLY BAROMETER’s SUMMIT OF MINDS in Chamonix. What struck me was how many people were involved in exciting ventures for bringing about positive change in different aspects of our lives – in our relationship with the environment, with our fellow human beings, and in our quality of life. CHANGEMAKERS bringing rays of hope to these dark times. In this series, they tell us about their vision, their journey and the challenges along the way. In our first episode, ELLEN WINDEMUTH, founder and supervisory board chair of the WATERBEAR NETWORK, shares her journey from documentary filmmaker to launching WATERBEAR, home to award-winning impact documentaries, series, and short films and the first interactive streaming platform devoted to protecting the future of our planet. ELLEN WINDEMUTH: "We need...disruptors on WaterBear...We cannot rely on lobbies and politicians to do this all for us...This is not about our future, it's about [Gen Z's], and they have no future unless we act."
