IHE Delft Institute for Water Education, in cooperation with the Global Network of Water Museums, with funds from the Dutch Ministry of Water and Infrastructure, and from the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs
‘Art, Journalism, and Science: A Collaboration on Water and Climate Change Storytelling’, the third event in our webinar series ‘When Waters Speak’ will take place on Zoom on Monday, 29 January, at 2 pm Central European Time (CET).
This session will spotlight the success of ‘Rewriting Climate Headlines’, a summer school hosted at the Royal Academy of Art in the Hague (KABK) in collaboration with the Arab Reporters for Investigative Journalism (ARIJ) in the summer of 2023.
This initiative brought together artists, researchers, and investigative journalists to explore the potential of cross-disciplinary collaboration and develop innovative approaches to storytelling about environmental justice. The webinar will particularly delve into a climate story related to water scarcity in the Jordan Valley and the voices of female farmers. The collaboration resulted in an investigative piece published in the media, an art exhibition during the ARIJ 16th Annual Forum in Amman (Jordan) and a video-cast shown at the COP28 in Dubai .
As we finalise the detailed programme and confirm speakers, we invite you to mark your calendars for this exciting event. We look forward to your participation in what promises to be a thought-provoking exploration of the intersection of art, journalism, and science in non-linear narratives about water and climate change.
