Creativity and Global Change

Solutions discussed:

Create and use arts sustainably

Particularly arts that are created and used on land, which have the potential to compromise land quality. An example is mass gatherings on open landscapes to celebrate nature, and ensuring that no damage is done to the environment through ensuring proper waste management.

Developing an Eco-Friendly Practice

Although culture is not an SDG target, it cuts across the implementation of the SDGs. This makes it relevant in addressing global challenges, like climate change, as understanding cultures can help to implement bespoke adaptation mechanisms in societies.
