The challenge

Protect Our Winters (POW) has a strong global presence and is recognised as a leading NGO in the outdoor adventure sports sector advocating for climate action.

Yet, despite their strong brand, POW EU felt directionless. They needed a clear, inspiring narrative — a guiding North Star — to align their chapters and amplify their mission across Europe. They sought powerful, precise words to clarify their purpose and energize their community, providing a solid foundation for growth and impact.

Our mission is to rally the outdoor community to lead on climate action.

Our Approach

We worked closely with the POW EU team to uncover their long-term vision and the actionable path to reach it. Through a collaborative process, we refined POW’s mission, values, and impact narrative, creating a unifying language to rally the outdoor community toward climate action. The goal was to develop messaging that would resonate across languages and national boundaries, sparking a cohesive, inspiring movement throughout Europe.

Key steps included:

In-Depth Discovery
Deep discussions with the POW team to understand the nuances of their vision and mission.

Crafting the Narrative
Developed impactful, memorable language for their vision, mission, and values to serve as an inspirational compass. Enabling team members to stay on-brand while telling their own stories behind their passion for climate advocacy.

Ensuring Usability and Reach
We organised the language into a clear, accessible format, making it easy for POW chapters to adopt and communicate consistently.

The collaboration has unlocked new possibilities for Protect Our Winters in Europe, allowing us to amplify our mission and reach new audiences. With your expertise, we streamlined our efforts, implemented impactful strategies, and tackled climate change with more precision. This project elevated our current initiatives and set the stage for future growth and greater environmental impact. We’re excited about the doors this has opened and are grateful for the support!

The results

The collaboration provided POW EU with a clear narrative to guide their mission and fuel their growth. The team now has a powerful, unifying message to inspire their chapters and drive climate action in the outdoor community.

Moving forward, POW EU expressed interest in deepening this collaboration with a potential in-person training for their chapters, equipping them with storytelling skills to adapt the new narrative to their unique languages and local projects.

Through strategic collaboration, we helped Protect Our Winters EU find their North Star, defining a clear, compelling impact narrative to inspire their community across Europe. With this unifying message, POW EU is better equipped to lead climate action and expand their reach. Together, we’ve set the foundation for an enduring, impactful movement.

Protect Our Winters Europe is extremely grateful for the amazing work done by Kevin. We came to him with the task of transforming our good ideas into impactful and catchy sentences to create a precise and inspiring new version of our vision, mission, values, and more. The result surpassed our expectations.
