Melanie Kemper is the Head of Communications, Knowledge Management & Web Design at Ecologic Institute. She works in the domains of environmental communication, science communication, information architecture, user group analysis, internet usability, interface design, and infographics for knowledge transfer. She speaks German, English, French and Spanish.

Melanie manages projects that aim at designing and implementing knowledge bases and websites containing environmental policy information for special target groups. She provides website advice, especially on user requirements, internet usability, database content management, the structuring and visualisation of information as well as web writing. Melanie serves as the link between the scientific and technical staff at Ecologic Institute. She also develops project websites that serve public relations as well as project management purposes. In addition, Melanie is responsible for the development of Ecologic Institute's websites.

From January 2001 until August 2006, Melanie founded, developed and headed the Ecologic Events Team. There her role was to design, prepare and co-ordinate international environmental policy events.

Prior to this, she worked for the Carl Duisberg Society (now GIZ) and the UFE Solar GmbH on Tenerife, Canary Islands. During her studies, she worked with the European Policy Coordination of Deutscher Naturschutzring, Unternehmensvereinigung Solarwirtschaft (now Bundesverband Solarwirtschaft) and the Environmental Agency of Gran Canaria, Spain. In addition, she worked in Paris, France for one year and performed a six-month internship with Greenpeace USA in San Francisco.

From 2008 until 2011, Melanie participated part-time in the Master Study Program Information and Knowledge Management at the Faculty of Media, Information and Design of the University of Applied Sciences and Arts, Hannover. In her master's thesis she developed a blended learning concept on infographics for knowledge communication in international environmental policy. Until 2000, she studied Landscape Planning at the Technical University Berlin, where she focused on environmental policy, environmental communication and public relations. Melanie Kemper wrote her master's thesis on technology diffusion, specifically investigating the case of solar-thermal water heaters in the Canary Islands [pdf, 880 kB, German].

Project
 
The project "Information and teaching materials for an environmentally conscious use of pharmaceuticals", led by Ecologic Institute, aims to promote an environmentally responsible use of human pharmaceuticals and to anchor the topic of pharmaceuticals and the environment in pharmaceutical and medical teaching. The overriding goal is to reduce the entry of pharmaceuticals into the environment and their effects on animals and plants. To this end, freely available teaching materials are developed for university teaching, for professional trainings and for vocational schools. In addition, customer information materials on the proper disposal of end-of-life medicines are created and disseminated. Finally, all information and materials will be made available on an online information platform at www.umweltbundesamt.de.
