Julie’s Bicycle (JB) are proud to be co-leading the Resilience Hub’s Arts, Culture, Antiquities and Heritage theme at COP27 this November, alongside Climate Heritage Network (CHN) and International Indigenous Women’s Forum (FIMI).
JB have joined forces with leading cultural voices to celebrate creative and cultural mobilisation in the face of the climate crisis at COP27. Creative climate responses are taking place all over the world, and yet are not considered central solutions to climate and justice. We aim to highlight this movement, and ensure it is recognised.
Our Resilience Hub events:
Mobilising Creativity: Showcasing the depth, range and potential of creative climate practices
Resilience Hub: 14 November, 4:30 – 6:00pm (GMT)
A dynamic session showcasing creative contributions to climate resilience with International Indigenous Women’s Forum (FIMI) and Climate Heritage Network (CHN). The session features examples of arts-led practice that highlights the depth, range and potential of creativity to contribute to resilience on the ground. Speakers include JB’s CEO Alison Tickell and Farah Ahmed, alongside artists and climate activists from around the world.
Culture, Gender, and Resilience: Unlocking diverse knowledge systems
Resilience Hub: 14 November, 1:30 – 3:30pm (GMT)
JB’s Alison speaks on this panel highlighting the essential role of women in the intergenerational transfer of cultural heritage and the immense potential of arts, culture and heritage to drive gender-inclusive climate-resilient pathways for adaptation and mitigation.
