Our conference logo was designed by Dr. Anna Lombardi, Climate Data Visualiser at the Copernicus Climate Change Service @CopernicusEU. Her aim: to create an image that sparks curiosity and gently invites people in.
The raw data for this visualisation is a set of monthly global temperatures. Through annual cycles that move from blue to red, the visualisation reveals the steady rise in global temperatures from the 1980s to recent years.
Visualising Climate 2026 is the first global conference dedicated to data visualisation and climate change.
Bologna, Italy, 4–6 November 2026
WHY bring science, media, design and art together?
Because they are powerful tools to understand complexity, engage broader audiences, and bring science closer to people. Beauty and clarity can open space for dialogue and support informed decisions.
