Genjo is the first mindfulness mobile app dedicated to supporting the mental health impact of climate change.
Over half the global population reports experiencing mental health effects from climate change. Eco-anxiety, climate grief, and feelings of helplessness are on the rise—especially among young people—yet few mental health solutions are designed specifically for these complex emotional experiences. The climate crisis is not only an environmental emergency but also a psychological one, and we need tools to help people cope in healthy, grounded ways.
Genjo is a mobile app that helps individuals manage the emotional toll of climate change through mindfulness, self-compassion, and guided emotional resilience practices. Our content is inspired by evidence-based therapeutic techniques like RAIN (Recognize, Allow, Investigate, Nurture), somatic awareness, and nonviolent communication, but delivered in short, accessible formats designed for moments of overwhelm. We focus on nurturing calm, clarity, and care—not toxic positivity or empty reassurance.
Our approach is unique because we don’t tell users to simply take action or “stay hopeful.” Instead, we help them meet their emotions with curiosity and compassion, offering daily reflections, micro-practices, and guided meditations grounded in emotional literacy and climate-aware psychology. We’ve designed the app to be as easy as opening a window for fresh air—a moment of calm in the storm.
Translator - Spanish
Genjo is the first mindfulness app designed to support people navigating climate emotions like anxiety, grief, and overwhelm. We're looking for a volunteer translator to help us bring this work to more people.
What you’ll do
- Translate Genjo's content into Spanish
- Offer light cultural adaptation so the copy reads naturally
- Review translated text inside the app for quality and clarity
Ideal for you if
- You’re fluent in English + Spanish
- You care about mental health, mindfulness, or climate wellbeing
- You enjoy beautifully crafted language and want to help shape a global product
What you’ll get
- Experience working with a design-driven, mission-led early-stage product
- Flexible, async collaboration with a respectful and supportive founder
