Title: Climate change in Africa
Description: Climate change poses a clear danger to lives and livelihoods across Africa. Journalists there have critical roles to play in  explaining the cause and effects of climate change, in describing what countries and communities can do to adapt to  the impacts ahead, and in reporting on what governments and companies do, or do not do, to respond to these threats.  Yet research on public understanding of climate change - such as the BBC Media Action's Africa Talks Climate project -  and surveys of journalists reveal that across Africa the media can and should do more to tell the story of climate change.  UNESCO produced this book to help fill this important gap.
