Danielle Eiseman
Visiting Lecturer, Department of Communication
Dr. Eiseman is a climate change communication specialist, with a focus on pro-environmental behavior change. She is particularly interested in how different engagement tools, such as storytelling, food, and social media, can help accelerate public engagement with climate change policy and action. Specific interests include: public engagement with climate change policy; audience segmentation; peer-to-peer learning; storytelling and stand-up comedy for public engagement; and the use of food experiences for telling the climate change story.
Danielle has represented Cornell at the United Nations Conference of Parties 23 in Bonn, Germany, COP 24 in Katowice, Poland, the Subsidiary Body Meeting (SB50) in Bonn, Germany, and the Global Alliance for Climate-Smart Agriculture Annual forum at the FAO in Rome, Italy. Danielle also serves as a communications specialist for the Cornell Emergent Climate Risk Lab and contributed to the Climate Smart Training program for the New York Power Authority in partnership with Clarkson University, as well as the Climate Stewards Program.
