Investigating the Credibility of Climate Change Information as Perceived by Post-Secondary Students

Summary

We are investigating the perceived trustworthiness of various sources of climate change information and are looking to hear from post-secondary students from across campus that represent a wide range of programs and faculties. In order to fulfill our study goals, we have designed a 5-minute survey and will be conducting interviews. Participation in this study is completely voluntary. This study will inform strategies that can be implemented at the post-secondary level to address climate misinformation and disinformation among the future working population in Calgary.
