Our projects
Our impact-focused projects aim to improve public understanding of climate change by delivering climate information to audiences through existing media infrastructure.

Our partners
The MCCCRH works with a broad range of partners from television networks and local newspapers to other universities.

It was great to visit Darwin last week for the Australian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society's 2019 conference. We relished the opportunity to engage with Australia's leading climate scientists and lead workshops on the challenges and opportunities of communicating #climatechange in Australia #AMOS2019

In partnership with the Royal Society of Victoria and Monash's School of Media, Film and Journalism, we are delighted to present "Communicating Science in a Post Normal World." Join us on Friday the 7th of June as we explore how to navigate a rapidly evolving scientific landscape at a time where public trust in science is shifting. Hear a keynote address from Professor Mike Schäfer (The University of Zurich), who will then join panellists Professor David Karoly and Dr Linden Ashcroft to explore this process, highlight the challenges and identify future directions for science communication.

It’s been a cracking start to 2019 here at the MCCCRH and this has been in large part due to these two wonderful people joining our team. Remy Shergill has joined us as the Project Manager of our Changing Climates column, and James Goldie has come on board us as our Knowledge Broker, working between us and the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes. We look forward to a great year ahead with these two putting their talents to work all in the name of #climatecommunication To find out more about our staff, check out https://www.monash.edu/mcccrh/people
