  • The programme’s visibility in the daily press and popular science writing (a few experts will be with us).
  • From a transdisciplinary environmental communication research perspective, do we want to contribute to or impact on the debate in relation to Sweden’s upcoming parliamentary election, and if so – in what ways?

How do the stories we tell influence our perception of nature? At Biotopia, a museum about Uppland’s nature, Maria Brandt works with storytelling to create positive outdoor experiences for people.

How can we meaningfully portray nature beyond beautiful sunsets?

What does it mean to portray nature in a meaningful way, and what defines good or bad nature photography? During 2025, Wikimedia Sweden and researchers from the programme delved deeper into this. Eric Luth, project leader at Wikimedia Sweden, shares his insights from the collaboration.
