Maren Krings is a German freelance photojournalist and climate impact storyteller whose work seeks solutions to socio-ecological impacts to help mitigate the current climate crisis.
We talk about Maren’s journey, of course, but also the importance of solutions-focused stories, and how, alone, these are not enough – diversity is critical to maximise engagement with an issue. We talk about challenges around mental health, the benefits of seeking support from others to form a strong team, and the impact this can have on you, your story, and what you create. We also explore the benefits of engaging a story doctor – a service I’d never come across before. And so much more.
This interview was recorded at the end of November in 2023. But everything we speak about is as relevant now as it was then.
