We only accept submissions from literary representatives or established production companies. Any unsolicited submissions will be deleted and not reviewed. To submit an idea, please contact our development team via enquiries@climate-spring.org with details about your project, including a paragraph on why you feel it fits our commissioning priorities.

Those who don’t meet these criteria may be eligible for Climate Spring's additional writers' development programmes and offers, advertised on our Opportunities page.

Please note our funding currently supports English- and French-language projects focused on audiences in the Global North, particularly the UK, US, Canada, Australia and Europe. This both reflects our funders’ remit and our core aim to drive greater climate engagement in regions that have been historically most responsible for the climate crisis. We are intentional about this approach and are mindful that Global North-based organisations should not shape climate narratives for Global Majority countries. Instead, we seek to support and collaborate with partners working in those contexts and to signpost to relevant organisations through our Ecosystem page.

We are a small team and receive a high volume of submissions. To give each idea the attention it deserves, please allow a few months for a response. We assess projects on their fit with our strategic goals, our briefs and their commercial potential, including a clear route to screen.
