KTH Climate Action Centre gets funding from Formas communication call
KTH Climate Action Centre is granted funding from Formas for the three-year long communication project ”Climate Q's”. A project that aims to increase the knowledge about climate action among young people.
”We look forward to getting started as soon as possible. This project ties together much of what we work for and it's great to have the opportunity to realize it on a larger scale," says Karin Larsdotter, project manager and Deputy Director at KTH Climate Action Centre.
The Qlimate Q's project is based on co-creation and knowledge production together with upper secondary schools in the Stockholm area. During the three-year project, KTH Climate Action Centre, together with students and their teachers, will investigate the conditions and need for knowledge about climate action, and together develop content. The project uses both AI and traditional media.
The project aims to increase knowledge in especially younger target groups about climate action and to contribute to broadened recruitment.
The funding from Formas is 1.8 million SEK.

The KTH Climate Action Centre Multi-disciplinary research team
Karin Larsdotter, Project leader
