How as photographers, can you communicate about
climate change?
Designed and delivered by Helena Lee, the aim of the
Climate Aware Photography course is to gain awareness
of the climate crisis – by understanding the science,
policy areas and environmental impacts of climate
change. Thereby encouraging individuals to consider
their own practices and to identify areas in which they
can reduce their own impacts, alongside how as
photographers, they can communicate about climate
change.
The Association of Photographers is delighted to offer
this course in co-operation with Helena Lee. Recognised
by the Carbon Literacy Project – which is itself recognised
by the United Nations at the COP 21 (Paris), this course is
specifically aimed at photographers and will help you
assess your carbon costs and impacts so that you are
able to make decisions that will effectively reduce your
emissions.
Specifically aimed at Photographers.
The course is delivered by three 8live, in-person9 online
Zoom sessions over the course of three weeks.
Attendance is required as it is designed to be interactive,
engaging and to get you thinking about your own unique
circumstances. You9ll also have a piece of work to submit
which is assessed by the Carbon Literacy project - you9ll
need to pass this to receive your certification.
