MEVIT2615 – Framing the environment in media and communication studies
This course is part of the transdisciplinary 40-credit group Environmental Studies - Historical, Cultural and Societal Perspectives (40ENVIRONMENT). The course is taught in English every autumn semester and size is 10 ECTS credits.
Climate change is the most serious issue facing us today. Film, media, politics, and corporations all have a powerful role in communicating the urgency of the ecological crisis.
In this course we will work together to gain an overview of the complex relationship between media and the environment with a focus on UN's sustainability goals regarding «responsible production and consumption» and «climate action».
