An authoritative, accessible, and actionable resource that redefines how climate engagement is approached — bringing together insights from neuroscience, behavioural science, media, advertising, and creative industries to close the gap between awareness and action.

Approach
I worked as Contributing Editor across the full report, shaping its organisation, structure, and clarity, and authored the Executive Summary to distil its vision and key recommendations. My role involved:

  • Refining content flow to take readers from why a shift in climate communication is needed, through how to achieve it.

  • Ensuring tone was inclusive, globally relevant, and aligned with both science and creativity.

  • Integrating contributions from over 40 global organisations into a single coherent narrative.

  • Translating complex policy references (Articles 6 and 12 of the Paris Agreement) into plain language, connected to real-world creative solutions.

Highlights

  • Global Launch at Horizon Media HQ during Climate Week NYC 2023 — attended by scientists, creatives, policy experts, and media leaders.

  • Featured in UN SDG Media Zone panel, We Don’t Have Time Climate Week broadcast, and multiple high-profile events at COP28.

  • Partnerships with Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, Horizon Media, and the Cannes Lions Young Marketers programme to extend reach and application.

  • Executive Summary positioned as an “entry point” resource for media professionals, policy actors, and creative industries.

  • Cited by Netflix’s CSO and the International Advertising Association as “filling a void” in the climate communications landscape.

Impact

  • 40+ global contributors from organisations including Accenture Song, Climate Group, ClientEarth, The Rockefeller Foundation, Nia Tero.

  • Training & capacity building: Delivered a Climate Communications Training at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, raising average knowledge scores from 5/10 to 7.5/10.

  • Creative industry engagement: Integrated findings into Cannes Lions Young Marketers Competition briefs; engaged 250+ professionals from 30 countries.

  • Catalyst for innovation: Helped lay the groundwork for the Earth Public Information Collaborative (EPIC), a sister project launched at COP28 to advance cultural and science-based climate storytelling.

  • Provided a platform for influential voices including Xiye Bastida, Catherine McKenna, Sophia Kianni, and Jane Madgwick to connect climate and culture at a global scale.

Why it matters
Climate communication is not just about sharing facts — it’s about sparking connection, shifting norms, and enabling action. This project brings together the science of human behaviour with the art of cultural storytelling, creating a practical, shareable blueprint for a new era of public engagement.
