Satellite event: Climate communicators as agents of change: a new role in the face of crisis

The climate crisis is changing not only our environment, but also the role of communication in society.

At this event, we invite you to look at climate communicators as agents of change – people who not only inform but also activate society to take action. In discussions and presentations, we will explore how communication can become a strategic tool for systemic change.
