Moving Forward

Advocacy

The climate crisis is the greatest test of our time - presenting profound challenges to our cultural, economic and political lives - and culture and the arts represents one of the greatest untapped sources of creativity, wisdom, insight, and opportunity for mitigating and responding to its impacts.

We are actively involved in a number of areas of advocacy including campaigns for change targeting key decision-makers and responding to government inquiries or calls for comment.
