Climate Visuals x Magnum Photos

Climate Visuals has collaborated with the Magnum archive on a curation of images about climate change. The ‘Climate Visuals’ project (led by Climate Outreach) is an initiative based on international social research, which offers seven, evidence-based, core principles for improved visual communication around climate change.

In addition, a growing online image library relating to climate change causes, impacts and solutions illustrates the research and principles behind the project, providing inspiration and guidance to campaigners, picture editors, journalists and communications practitioners. The website showcases these carefully selected images from partner photographic agencies and photographers, allowing users to search via a series of galleries and filters.

To find out more about the Climate Visuals project and their upcoming events you can check out their website, or follow them on Twitter and Instagram.
