LIVE STREAM: HARNESSING COLLECTIVE INTELLIGENCE FOR CLIMATE CHANGE COMMUNICATION
April 27 2012

Connect4Climate (C4C) is a campaign, a coalition, and a community that cares about climate change. C4C’s mission is to create an open knowledge platform that engages the global community in climate change conversation to drive local action. We are making great strides towards this goal- in just six months we have created a Facebook community of more than 250,000 and our weekly online reach is up to 6 million users across multiple social media channels.
Now we are taking on a new challenge: connecting people for deeper conversations and engagement, to generate new ideas and action. C4C will bring together the users, the producers, and the implementers of knowledge - everyone with a stake - for a spirited and stimulating exchange.
PART 1:
Panel discussion:
The C4C team will host a group of scholars and researchers from leading academic research programs on climate change communication to share their work with you and the C4C global
online community.

PART 2:
E-conference:
Join us on www.facebook.com/groups/connect4climate
Following the panel, we will move the discussions online – please add your voice and contribute! We hope this informal gathering of scholars, decision-makers, grassroots activists, and concerned global citizens of all ages from all walks of life, will harness our collective intelligence to find new and effective ways to address the challenges of climate change communication.
To spark the conversation, we will present the work of the May 1st panel on our C4C Facebook group page. Then we expect YOU to take over - share your perspectives, knowledge, and experiences and together we can generate new ideas and action.
