Museums Facing Extinction: joining forces for a sustainable future
Presentation abstract
Where are we – as Europeans, global citizens and culture professionals – with regards to climate change? Why is there such a need for collaborative action, on a personal, professional and institutional level. How might the cultural sector and cultural institutions play a critical, catalytic role in supporting climate action and in mobilising hearts and minds to create a sustainable world in time.
