<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">This project will work to create a real-time analysis of the Sydney Powerhouse Museum’s forthcoming ‘100 Conversations’ installation, that aims to grow a substantial video archive of climate change
thought leaders communicating their ideas for action, hope, and solutions to climate change. Undertaking deep content analysis and applying critical frameworks for understanding climate change communication to the interviews and exhibition curation, the project
will examine the capacities of these climate change narratives to promote and inspire the action that is so critically needed on climate change. It will also investigate the contemporary role of museums in enhancing climate literacy and climate action. The
project will advance our understanding of the role of storytelling and narrative in documenting and galvanising inclusive responses to the climate emergency and creating change at both individual and system levels.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
