Sustainability is a word that we hear a lot of these days. But what exactly does it mean? And how does it apply to the cultural sector? This is the second session of a three-session workshop series and it will focus on the climate crisis and specifically what we, as the cultural sector, can do about it. Learn more and join Workshop I and Workshop III of the series: 

• Workshop I - Introduction to Sustainability for Culture (24 April) will introduce the concept of sustainability and take a deeper look into how it applies to us in our daily work.
• Workshop III - Digital Management (8 June) will focus on understanding our digital impact, recommending strategies, and sustainable digital practices.
