Episode 28
Monday, 30 March, 2026

Dr. Jill Brown has built her career around a simple idea: data only matters if people can understand it, trust it and use it to make decisions. An environmental communication researcher and data storyteller, Brown brings a background in social psychology, statistics and risk communication to her work translating complex information into something meaningful. From public health to environmental challenges, her focus is on helping organizations and communities move from data to action. In this episode, Brown shares how she approaches data storytelling, why tailoring communication to different audiences is essential and how clearer messaging can lead to better decisions. ----- About AWI: Website: http://awi.ua.edu Join the conversation on AWI's social media: LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/company/alabama-water-institute YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AlabamaWaterInstitute X/Twitter: https://x.com/alabamawater Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alabama_water Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AlabamaWaterInstitute
