WELCOME TO HOT SCIENCE - GLOBAL CITIZENS

 



 

Hot Science Global Citizens: the Agency of the Museum Sector in Climate Change
Interventions is an Australian Research Council Linkage Project lead by the
Centre for Cultural Research, University of Western Sydney in partnership with
Museum Victoria (Melbourne), The Australian Museum (Sydney), Powerhouse Museum
(Sydney), Questacon (Canberra); Liberty Science Center (New Jersey, USA), the
University of Melbourne and the University of Leicester.

 

The research project looks at the museum sector as places to provide
information, activate broker discussions and decisions around climate change
issues, locally and trans-nationally. The project uses an interdisciplinary
approach to develop new knowledge about what constitutes effective action around
climate change, and how it can be represented and debated in local and global
public spheres. The project looks to the museum sector – natural history,
science museums and science centres – to play a role as resource, catalyst and
change agent in climate change debates and decision-making. And as such as
unique public spaces where science, government, industry, communities and NGOs
can meet; where knowledge can be mediated, competing discourses and agendas
tabled and debated; and , where innovative decision-making platforms can be
created.
