CICC Team Awarded Georgia Tech Sustainability Next Seed Grant (2024)

A team led by Bruce Walker, Susan Lozier, Claire Arthur, Jessica Roberts, and Carrie Bruce from Georgia Tech, and Amy Bower from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) have been awarded a Georgia Tech Sustainability Next Seed Grant to continue the work of establishing the Center for Inclusive Climate Communications. From the grant: “The Center will focus on inclusive climate communication strategies, tools, and research. Application domains will include science, formal education, informal learning environments, and public communications (including climate emergency and disaster-related communications). Key inclusive tools will support accessible forms of maps, STEM diagrams, graphs and data displays, mathematical, probabilistic, and statistical information, and narratives. Communication strategies will be optimized for different ages, languages, education, and certainly for a diversity of perceptual and cognitive abilities.”
