Our new media strategy following our mid-term review, which aims to reach out to stakeholders beyond academia, is already bearing fruit. And this new focus received a real boost with the release of the IPCC Working Group 1 report.
The past four months have been incredibly busy with a new research brief structure, big changes in social media, and a mainstream media takeover likely to have significant ramifications for our communication of research.
The foundations of our outreach program are now almost all in place for the Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes. Our website is in place, social media is close to becoming more active and already Centre researchers are featuring prominently in the media.
