Join us at Scaling Global Climate Solutions through Culture and Heritage!
September 25 @ Climate Week NYC 🗽

What can the wisdom, places and practices of the past teach us about addressing climate change today?

Join community leaders, policymakers and practitioners to explore how culture and cultural heritage can help advance global climate action – from low-carbon building materials and reuse to climate-responsive design and the knowledge embedded in longstanding practices. Together, we’ll explore what it will take to bring solutions to scale through policy and practice.
