During this Lunch Lecture, Jon Christensen and Shannon Lambert discuss the ways in which histories and doing science influence approaches to environmental communication.
In this public interview, professor and journalist Jon Christensen and UGent postdoctoral researcher Shannon Lambert discuss the ways in which histories and practices of thinking and doing science influence strategic approaches to environmental communication in our present moment.
Stretching across the sciences and the humanities, the interview aims to explore how narrative in particular is an effective tool in framing and synthesizing scientific information, in generating empathy and interest in public readers and audiences, and in countering misinformation.
