Communicating climate hope: Countering eco-anxiety and climate doomism in research and practice

August 14 - August 16, 2024

Green College Coast House, Vancouver, BC V6T 1X8

Communicating Climate Hope 2024 is a two-day distributed/hybrid conference, co-hosted and co-located at the University of British Columbia (UBC) in Vancouver, Canada and Tilburg University (TiU) in the Netherlands, to be held August 15-16. The Communicating Climate Hope conference will bring together a diversity of experts in climate communication, including those who identify primarily as academic researchers, artists, community organizers, and climate activists. We welcome and encourage a creative range of contributions to the conference program, to include not only academic presentations, but also participatory workshops, artistic performances, and guided discussions.

The day before the conference, August 14th, UBC will host a day-long interactive hybrid institute on climate communication. The institute is free and open to the public; however, space will be limited. Participants can attend in person or online.
