I am working at Marmara University’s Communication Department where I give lectures at undergraduate (ILT3025 Media and Human Rights; COMM 3004.1 Public opinion, Public Diplomacy and Lobbying) and graduate levels (GZT7206 Media and Democracy; GZT7221.1 Media and Environmental Politics; GZT8223.1 Communication of Environmental Politics). After receiving my Master’s (Galatasaray University) and PhD (Université Aix-Marseille III) degrees in Political Science, my research focused on ecology and climate change policies. The discourses produced about ecological destruction and climate change in both politics and the media, and the discursive obstruction of understanding the relationship between disasters and climate change, have been at the center of my research.
