PATHWAYS TO ACTION

Culture Declares: 8 Pathways to Action

Emergency action is called for. In these times, we need to emerge as resilient cultural workers, adapting to external changes and ‘being the change’ ourselves. This is a chance to take a stand on the Earth crisis and its implications for justice.

Find out about the 8 pathways to action.

Co-creating a regenerative culture – one that is inclusive, healthy, life-supporting, and adaptable – requires rebuilding relationships between ourselves, with other species and the land. This takes time. Declaring emergency is just the first step of a journey. You can’t do everything, so here are some pathways you can follow – in solidarity with others and learning as you go.

We welcome your stories of action to link to or to share on social media, with #CultureTakesAction. Please share via this form.

These eight pathways are from the Culture Takes Action framework, developed by Bridget McKenzie of Climate Museum UK. Each pathway section provides you with more ideas and links to cultural practice.
