With a particular focus on multimodal communication, her research aims at analyzing the images and the texts on climate change on recent social networking platforms, such as Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok. The results of this investigation will contribute to the understanding of the obstacles to pro-environmental behavior in Europe and to proposing new techniques for effective climate change communication.
