The International Environmental Communication Association (IECA), in collaboration with the University of Tasmania’s School of Creative Arts and Media (CAM), invites scholars, artists, practitioners, and activists to the 18th Biennial Conference on Communication and Environment (COCE). COCE 2025, taking place 23-27 June 2025 in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia, will be a hybrid conference, offering opportunities for in-person and virtual presentation and participation, as well as interaction between in-person and virtual attendees. Submissions in familiar formats, as well as in creative and new formats, are welcomed until 11:59 pm PST 31 October 2024.

COCE’s first time in the Southern Hemisphere will feature both the familiarity of this widely beloved conference and the unconventional – we invite attendees to join us in shifts in perspective and experience ushered in through engaging in the edge. For those attending in person, University of Tasmania, the world’s leading university for climate action (Times Higher Education Impact Rankings, 2022-2024), is working closely with local partners to meaningfully negate negative and increase positive environmental impacts of travel to COCE 2025.
