Reflections at the intersection of climate science, data visualisation, and the journey of co-designing understanding
Drawing on a journey of over two decades at the intersection of information design and science, Angela will retrace how, in a world where scientific evidence is contested and scientists face growing pressures, co-design became a necessity: not simply as a way of involving an audience, but as a practice of building, together with scientists, a flexible scaffolding for listening, questioning, exploring and creating shared understanding. A final visualisation remains central. Yet what supports its strength is often less visible: the relationships, knowledge, skills and ways of working developed through the process. A legacy that can endure beyond individual projects, strengthening our collective capacity to communicate climate science, inform decisions, raise awareness and connect with people.
