Images that people easily understand

In an online survey of 3000 people that formed part of the Climate Visuals research, people were asked to rate images according to how well they understood them. The images in this gallery were either tested in our research, and were easily understood, or are similar to the tested images, are are therefore likely to be received in a similar way.

  • VII Photo Symposium: Climate change and the female gaze⠀ ⠀ Join @climatevisuals , @eva_sajovic , Nichole Sobecki , @corrine.silva.rocks & @viiphoto on: 12th June 2020⠀ Start Time: 14:00 GMT / 15:00 BST / 16:00 CET / 10:00 EDT⠀ Full details and to register visit: ⠀ https://climatevisuals.org/blogs/climate-change-and-female-gaze⠀ ⠀ At this time of crisis, it is important to acknowledge the gendered nuances of the impact of climate change, and how women are playing leading roles in affirmative climate action. ⠀ ⠀ The effects of the unjust planet we have created are forcing a further reflection on accepting the idea that we are so intrinsically connected with everything, and that we are inextricably part of nature, and in this, we are therefore part of the global problem, as well as the potential solution. As a consequence, it seems important to create empathy with the viewers.⠀ ⠀ Photo credit: Nichole Sobecki / VII Photo⠀ ⠀ #femalephotography #climatephotography #photojournalism #symposium #climatechange #climatestories #climatevisuals #femaleperspective #webinar
