Communicating About Climate Change: Listening, Learning, Building Resiliency
Thursday November 14, 2024 1:45pm - 2:30pm EST
Room 322
Feedback Survey
Let's talk climate change education, outreach, and communication in this interactive session presented by UK Extension and the Kentucky Climate Consortium. As environmental educators, we have both the great challenge and great opportunity to communicate with our audiences about climate change, and to join them in taking hope-filled action steps to help mitigate extreme effects and risks.

In 2023, the UK Soil & Water Extension team and the Kentucky Climate Consortium administered a state-wide survey of Extension personnel aimed at better understanding the gaps and goals identified by these professionals regarding climate change communication. Although the survey had an Extension specific audience, the findings and gap-filling resources being developed, can be applied to any audience. Session presenters will share survey results, overview ways they are working to fill identified gaps, and get YOUR valuable feedback to see how the university can better support all Kentuckians as we work toward building a more resilient future.

Walk away with new climate education resources and communication strategies aimed at increased climate awareness, engagement, and action.
