Reading and Resources on Adaptation

Adaptation within the Creative Climate movement

Our focus on adaptation for the Leading Resilience programme, comes from the pressing need for the cultural sector to respond to the unavoidable impacts of climate change. By fostering resilience and protecting cultural heritage, we aim to create a future rooted in justice, connection, and wellbeing. This resource page will continue to grow, offering practical tools and readings to become a valuable hub for adaptation in the cultural community.
