International Association for Media and Communication Research (IAMCR)

research. Media/communication researchers with interest in climate 
issues are encouraged to apply, from all fields of media/communication, 
and all career stages. Interdisciplinary collaborations are encouraged.

    About the Award

The New Directions for Climate Communication Research Fellowship is 
awarded annually as part of IAMCR's policy to green its activities. It 
received seed funding from a 2014 IAMCR Project Grant. IECA joined the 
project in 2015. Since 2017 the award has been financed by the Griffith 
Centre for Social and Cultural Research 
<https://www.griffith.edu.au/humanities-languages/centre-social-cultural-research>, 
Griffith University, Australia.

This fellowship will be awarded to the applicant (as sole or lead 
author) who presents an outstanding and innovative proposal for a 
research project in the area. The aim is to encourage a wide range of 
researchers to think creatively about new directions for research. 
Members of IAMCR and/or IECA with an interest in climate communication 
are encouraged to apply. Interdisciplinary collaborations are encouraged 
as are early career scholars.
