Hilals PhD project examines how Jordanian youth activists and journalists navigate the tensions between international funding requirements, state-led agendas, and community-rooted environmental storytelling. Through three interconnected papers, the research investigates whether journalism and digital platforms can serve as sites of epistemic agency in a country disproportionately impacted by climate change yet marginalized in global climate narratives.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Speaker:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kowi-salzburg.at\/en\/team\/hilal-thawab\/\">Thawab Hilal<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kowi-salzburg.at\/en\/department\/public-spheres-and-inequalities\/\">Division Public Spheres and Inequalities<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> April 14, 2026 &#8211; 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Pathways for Climate Change Communication in Jordan: Youth Activism, Journalism, and Digital Media&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":62,"featured_media":19800,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[538,1160,994,993,539],"tags":[],"einzelner-mitarbeiter":[],"filter":[],"heroslider":[170,44],"class_list":["post-22681","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-aktuelles-en","category-division-public-spheres-and-inequality-research-news","category-lecture","category-research","category-startseite-en","heroslider-aktuelles","heroslider-startseite","category-538","category-1160","category-994","category-993","category-539","description-off"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
