What's on offer?
You are warmly invited to attend the pre-launch of the NYRA project, a groundbreaking social venture founded by Dr Amanda Lenhardt, designed to catalyse collective action between farmers in the Global South on the frontlines of climate change and people in the UK ready to take meaningful actions. This pre-launch looks ahead to COP30 in November. Part of the Festival of Social Science and supported by the One King's Impact Fund.
What's it about?
Nyra is a groundbreaking social venture founded by Dr. Amanda Lenhardt, and supported by the One King’s Impact Fund, designed to catalyse collective action between farmers in the Global South on the frontlines of climate change and people in the UK ready to take meaningful, evidence-based climate actions.

Co-creating What's Next: A pre-launch event that welcomes you as a partner - help shape Nyra’s approach before we unveil the platform during COP 30.
Experience our Climate Action Lab: Discover a pioneering, multisensory approach to climate action- You’ll be the first to experience immersive media designed to inspire action.
Get to Know Us: Hear from the Farmers, Agronomists, Artisans, Economists and Designers behind Nyra and learn about the journey.
