To turn theory into practice

Cultural Adaptations is a project focused on developing a new field of work for artists and contribute to society’s work with climate adaptation. The aim of the project is to turn theoretical knowledge in climate adaptation and artistic approach into practice.
 
The project will show art and culture as significant contributors to societal development regarding climate change and help cultural organizations to formulate their own strategies for climate adaptation.
