Climate Disinformation and Obstructionism Research Cluster

This Research Cluster (RC) is organized around research on identifying climate change disinformation (through both traditional social science methods, and newly emerging computational means), and developing strategies to counter obstruction of climate action.
A central goal of this initiative is to establish this research excellence cluster as a knowledge hub, and scholarly network, equipped to engage with the public, and help key communities address the challenge of climate disinformation and obstruction. In this context we will develop a network of scholars with complementary strength, and pursue research external funding from Tri-Council agencies, government, and private sources.
