The Climate Connection – In Visual Minutes

Julie’s Bicycle has been working in partnership with The British Council as part of The Climate Connection, a global platform for dialogue, cooperation and action against climate change in the lead up to the United Nations climate conference, COP26. One strand of this partnership was a series of Cultural Policy Roundtables: five digital policy conversations to explore current creative practice and policy in four different countries: Turkey, Indonesia, Nigeria and Colombia, with a concluding public summary event in Italy aligned with the Pre-COP Summit.

The visual minutes below are records of each of these international conversations held earlier this year. With thanks to Ada Jusic and Dina Ganjar Nugraha for capturing the insights with their brilliant artwork.
