Climate change as a complex phenomenon and the problem of cultural governance

Guest editorial: This special issue presents the key research findings generated by the Australian Research Council international Linkage project, Hot Science Global Citizens: the agency of the museum sector in climate change interventions. Hot Science, an interdisciplinary project, operates within these gaps looking to the cultural sector and cultural institutions (natural history museums, science museums and science centres) as agents for change and as places to provide information, activate, broker discussions and decisions around climate change issues, locally and as part of trans-national coalitions.
