Course Summary

This course provides an overview of the representation, framing and expression of the environment and nature in various cultural forms and across a range of media within different global contexts. You will examine ways in which worldviews, beliefs and practices manifest in responses to environmental issues, and how communications framing and messaging are deployed to shaping solutions. You will analyse contemporary documents and texts in order to explore the relationship between media communications and sustainability. In light of cultural insights gained from this analysis we will develop media strategies designed to frame and represent environmental concerns and influence target audiences.
