On July 19, 2022, the Copenhagen Center for Disaster Research invited Gemma Sou, Vice Chancellor’s Fellow at RMIT University in Australia, for a talk about her new collaborative comic, ‘Living with Climate Change: Everyday Stories from the World’s Margins’ (2022). In this COPE Socials, Gemma discussed how combining research on the everyday experiences of climate change and the ‘technology’ of comics is well positioned to produce compelling and nuanced stories that provoke us to reconsider several dominant commonplaces about people and places experiencing climate change. Understanding and responding to the changing climate will require recognizing and engaging multiple, diverse experiences of agency, a process that attention to comics can help facilitate.
