Communicate is the annual conference for environmental communicators – bringing together a mix of NGO’s, media professionals, business/CSR, academics and policy makers. Get informed and get involved with the crucial current and upcoming debates in the sector, and get direct feedback on your own communication campaigns. Organisations across the field contribute to the content - and Communicate stays ahead of the curve.
Join us this year for a special focus on:
- The new models of communication – including a keynote by Robin Ince from BBC Radio 4’s Infinite Monkey Cage on using comedy to make a difference
- Messages from the ‘Green Economy’ – debated by sustainability experts and high profile CSR professionals including Futerra, Coca-Cola, and the UNDP
- An overview of the Natural Environment White Paper, and a chance to influence the future third sector and policy cooperation of the “Living with Environmental Change” programme.
- Communicating difficult issues – led by Aubrey Manning and Mark Lynas
- The Psychology of Persuasion – with international guests Zoos Victoria presenting their world leading campaign that forever changed the perspective of zoo visitors in Australia.

Communicate 2011 Delegate Showcase
Wednesday 15, September 2010
Do you have an innovative environmental communication project to share with other Communicate delegates?
One of the key aspects of Communicate is to allow delegates, speakers and guests to make new connections and learn from one another, and to further that aim, we will be a hosting a “Delegate Showcase” on the 3rd November, giving Communicate attendees the chance to speak about their own experiences of communicating environmental issues. This is a fantastic opportunity for your project to reach a wider audience of influential delegates.
We are looking for delegates who would like to make a short presentation of 5 minutes. We are particularly keen to see presentations that are interactive and engaging, and make good use of a diverse range of media. This year, we are particularly keen to highlight projects that make use of digital and online media; the arts; or those that closely chime with our conference theme of Nature, People and Economics.
If you are interested in showcasing your work at Communicate 2011, then please submit your proposal to Turn on JavaScript! before 28th September, including your name and organisation, the title and format of your submission, and a paragraph outlining the key points of your presentation.
Due to the number of submissions we receive, we will not be able to showcase all delegate presentations at Communicate, but will select those which the committee feels are most suitable for this year’s themes.
