TOWARDS A GLOBAL MOVEMENT

Arts and culture are not the panacea for environmental justice and other social change to happen at the scale and speed necessitated by realities of the world. Artivism is where art and activism unite to inspire and transform.

For decades, passionate changemakers all over the world have harnessed arts power to convey profound messages, spark critical conversations, and reshape our communities. The immersive experiences of the arts and culture, however, powerfully touch people’s hearts and move people to make sense of issues as well as inspire action.

This conference aims to be an immersive experience that nurtures the global Artivism movement.

CALLING ALL CREATIVE ARTIVISTS!

PURPOSE

To champion cultural activism and kickstart a global movement by convening 1000+ people and organisations as a community of purpose around ARTIVISM — toward mutual learning, cross-disciplinary collaboration and urgent, sustainable action — led by, and in solidarity with, the Global Majority

OUTCOMES
