Join us for a two-day National Network for Ocean and Climate Change Interpretation (NNOCCI) workshop. NNOCCI aims to change the national conversation around climate change to be positive, civic-minded, and solutions-focused. We use evidence-based communications methods, provide social-emotional support, and employ the latest climate science findings and apply them in our institutions.
At the end of the workshop participants will understand:
The shared mission of NNOCCI
Some basic climate science principles as outlined in the latest US Climate Assessment
Why we need to change the climate story
How to frame a story with tone, values, explanatory metaphors, and solutions
At the end of the workshop participants will feel:
More confident in their ability to overcome barriers to interpreting climate change issues
That they are part of a larger community of colleagues who share an interest in stimulating dialog about how we can all participate in addressing issues of ocean and climate change
General Registration will open up on Monday, January 26.
