IMAGINE TOMORROW.
THEN CHANGE TODAY.
The future is open: Talking Hope drives and supports systems change
around climate, democracy, social justice and public health. We are working
through socially inclusive communications and participatory engagement.
WHY TALKING HOPE
Our world is going through profound change: Climate crisis and biodiversity loss are forcing us to rethink the way we live. Their effects are interconnected and affect us all: Our personal health and the health of our societies, our economic wellbeing and the functioning of democracy – all this is linked to how well we respond to the climate crisis.
Talking Hope is led by the ideal of a fair and sustainable world in which all people can thrive. Bold climate solutions will contribute to more well-being, and a fairer, healthier, and safer society. The climate transition is not just a challenge. It is also an invitation to improve lives and better build our future.
After COP30 – Time for us to step up
Now is the Time to Raise the Pressure
COP30 in Belém showed: The era of simply waiting for the next global climate deal is coming to an end. A new phase in climate action is emerging — one defined by plurilateral initiatives, by coalitions of willing governments and actors who are moving faster than the full UN process. That shift matters. But as the focus moves to these smaller-group initiatives, civil society and grassroots pressure become more, not less vital.
Workshop: “Too gooD to be wrong?”
25/11/2025 | 14.00-14.45 | Climate Future Conference 2025 | Zeiss-Großplanetarium | Prenzlauer Allee 80, 10405 Berlin
Misinformation about the climate crisis appears everywhere — at school, online and in everyday life. This workshop equips students in grades 5–13 with the tools to spot common tricks, fallacies and fake news, and to assess them with confidence. Perfect for anyone seeking clearer insight and a stronger voice in shaping our climate future.
Keynote: From ‘Climate Crisis’ to ‘Shaping the Future’
27/10/2025 | 19.00-20.30 Uhr | Institut für Nachhaltiges Wirtschaften | Meerscheinschlössl, Mozartgasse 3, 8010 Graz-Geidorf, AU
Climate action is facing a profound crisis. Public discource on climate is increasingly polarized, politics and the media have shifted their attention elsewhere — while the 1.5°C threshold is about to be crossed. How can we respond? In her keynote, our founder Eva-Maria McCormack offers inspiring perspectives on how we can foster the transformation toward a sustainable society built on shared well-being.
Longing for tomorrow makes us change our today.
Hope is not a pink, gooey-eyed look at the future. It is the recognition that we can change the world – and the courage to act into the unknown.

THE TRANSFORMATION MANUFACTURY
Talking Hope empowers and accelerates collective action for positive change through socially inclusive communications.
Our vision is a fair and sustainable future in which all people can thrive and live together peacefully. To this end, support collective change aimed at more sustainable living conditions, social justice, health, and the active participation of all groups in society. We drive collective change through participatory strategies, solution-oriented communication, transformative campaigns, and positive visions of the future.
We work with civic society, philanthropic, public and private partners as well as the media to create and foster pathways of positive change.
BUILDING BRIDGES AND CONSENSUS
It takes the world to change the world: To widen the consensus for a sustainable future, more people of all backgrounds must share in the conversation how to realize it. We respect diversity with diversity. Talking Hope is not just a team of experts. We are people with many different stories and many different origins. And that makes us even better.
