Creative Climate Justice Seminar

Launching of the climate justice guide
As a carbon-intensive economy and one of the world’s leading fossil fuel producers, Norway is currently in the midst of a complex reckoning with the crisis. The emergency is already happening, but choices taken now and in the near future will have a huge impact on future life in Norway, as well as the habitability of the planet at large.
The guide doesn’t deny the complexity of the situation, nor underestimate the vast level of global action needed to be taken. Yet, the guide argues that Norway’s public commitment to environmental sustainability, global justice and democratic values, combined with the existential urgency of the challenges upon us, increases the need for arenas where public imagination can be engaged and galvanised.
To launch the guide, Rosendal Theatre hosts a one-day seminar on creative climate justice with a special focus on how arts organisations can use their public-facing platforms to create forums for public engagement. The full ine up for the day can be found below. Sign up via the simple Googleform here.
The same evening, Rosendal Teater throws a party where the bands Beharie and Sløtface will play. More information on the party can be found here.
