“Communicating Climate Hope 2024” is a two-day distributed/hybrid conference, co-hosted and co-located at the University of British Columbia (UBC) in Vancouver, Canada and Tilburg University (TiU) in the Netherlands, to be held August 15-16, 2024. The Communicating Climate Hope conference will bring together a diversity of experts in climate communication, including those who identify primarily as academic researchers, artists, community organizers, and climate activists. We welcome and encourage a creative range of contributions to the conference program, to include not only academic presentations, but also participatory workshops, artistic performances, and guided discussions.

Given the scope of the climate crisis, we all have roles to play in building a more sustainable, just, and equitable world, and to do so, we must be in constructive and trusting conversation with one another. We aim for the Communicating Climate Hope 2024 conference to be a venue for starting such conversations.

UBC Vancouver is located on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ speaking xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) people. The land it is situated on what has always been a place of learning for the Musqueam, who for millennia have passed on their culture, history, and traditions from one generation to the next on this site.
