Call for proposals: Bridging the gap between climate concern and climate action. Deadline: 13 June 2025

How and why can communications and marketing enable or hinder the translation of climate concern into climate action?

We seek to commission qualitative research aims for a more nuanced understanding of the intention-action gap with regard to climate change. www.climatexchange.org.uk/research-cal...
