Landscape Rehydration Science in Style

One of the suite of new social media tiles created by some skilled Institute for Water Futures students at ANU.

We will share science in style in 2023 on Mulloon’s social media, thanks to a successful ANU student project. The project was part of our ongoing affiliation with the Complex Environmental Problems in Action course at the Institute for Water Futures, ANU. This collaboration is all about testing digital tools to engage the community in how waterways and catchments are transformed by rehydration.  

This group drew on their terrific design and science communication skills to build an Instagram carousel we can use for future series. Sharing science in the fast-paced environment of social media is a fine art. The students focused on eye-catching aesthetics and short compelling narratives in their approach.  

With thanks to Jahnavi Samprathi, Inga Mueller, Luke Farrow, Miranda Kennedy-Hine and Reina Katsumata for their fantastic work, and for a great report full of useful insights on effective science communication.
