Webby Awards Nomination
The Climate Resilience Toolkit, powered by webLyzard search technology, has been nominated for the "Green" category of the Webby Awards - the "Internet’s highest honor" (New York Times), awarded by the International Academy of the Digital Arts and Sciences. We are thrilled about this nomination and proud to be standing alongside the category winner, NASA's Vital Signs of the Planet.
Another public showcase of webLyzard, the Media Watch on Climate Change, attracted a lot of interest at the World Bank communication conference in Washington D.C., with an analysis of Earth Day 2015 online coverage.
