Understanding the link between communication and change In this webpaper Chrys Horn observes that communication goals are usually seen as being the achievement of some change – getting people to change something that they do or don’t do, like recycle, exercise more, lose weight, accept possum control, provide better services, consult more effectively etc. However, as she points out, if we are to learn to communicate more effectively, however, it is critical to find frameworks to help us think through communication planning. This paper provides one such framework, another provides tips for effective communication. In other papers Chrys looks at lessons learnt through the Landcare Research collaborative learning group in communicating science and evaluating science communication activities. More writing from Chrys can be found on her blog: Learning, science and environment.
