Course contents :

| A wide range of social actors get involved in communication stratégies in the public sphere. Taking them into account allows to better understand how they consider their interests, and how environmental problems are formulated and evolve. These actors are typically associations and citizens groups, scientific experts, corporates and industries, journalists and so on.
Different communication strategies about environment are developed and generate synergies or conflicts: risks communication, media scheduling, public awareness campaigns, environmental justice, scientific communication, green marketing and industry lobbying contribute to shape environmental problems. |
