Creativity as a Climate Catalyst: Interactive Storytelling Salon & Leadership Panel
Adobe and Conservation International return to Climate Week to explore where creativity meets climate storytelling. For SFCW 2026, the program will expand beyond a main panel session to include an interactive storytelling salon showcasing storytelling strategies and product demos.
The event will take place at Adobe’s San Francisco office and will highlight climate storytelling examples and strategies from enterprise and nonprofit leaders, alongside climate creators.
Panel Speakers:
Elise O'Neil, Global Marketing Executive Chief of Staff, Adobe
Kati Kallins, Global Lead for Sustainability, Adobe
Marielle Canter Weikel, Vice President of Corporate Partnerships, Conservation International
Anand Varma, Founder @ WonderLab & National Geographic Photographer
Kristy Drutman, Co-CEO Green Jobs Board & Founder Browngirl Green
This event will center on three key themes:
Why storytelling is essential to climate action, and how creative tools enable greater reach, relevance, and emotional connection.
How nonprofits, enterprises, and creators each play distinct yet complementary roles in shaping climate narratives.
The importance of strengthening community amongst climate communicators and building resilience during challenging times.
