The worlds of research, science and comics were brought together to deliver a powerful message about climate change in a project led by Creative Concern.
Our team commissioned three leading comic creators to collaborate with the CONSTRAIN project, a consortium of 14 European partners tasked with improving near-term climate projections. The artists were chosen due to their interest in the subject, their creative style and the reach their work could gain with new audiences.
The comics were designed to reach a wide audience, beyond the scientific community. Creative Concern developed the brief for the artists, created the marketing strategy and activated the campaign across social media, online and with a supporting media relations campaign. In addition, the comics were showcased at the Lakes International Comic Art Festival and at an exhibition at Leeds University.
