In the run up to the COP24 negotiations in Katowice, Poland on 3-14 December, the event sought to contextualise the key objectives of the talks for the cultural sector. We were delighted to be joined by a line-up of high profile speakers: \u2022 Farhana Yamin, Chatham House Associate Fellow and former Climate Adviser to the Marshall Islands; \u2022 Alison Tickell, Director of Julie\u2019s Bicycle; \u2022 Paule Constable, award-winning lighting designer and National Theatre Associate; \u2022 Zo\u00eb Svendsen, Artistic Director of performing arts company METIS. Following a welcome by Lisa Burger, Executive Director at National Theatre, Farhana discussed the significance of COP and introduced the key objectives for this year\u2019s talks. Alison explored why the cultural sector should act on climate change and what has been done so far, while Paule and Zo\u00eb presented what we can do in the arts moving forward. If you weren\u2019t able to attend, you can listen to the speakers here. Please note that the recording has not been edited: https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/artsadmin\/seasonforchange-cop24 All four speakers raised thought-provoking questions around the unique role the arts and culture occupy in the environmental movement, and around the decisions we choose to make \u2013 or not make \u2013 in our creative practice or programming. Here are just a few of them: https:\/\/twitter.com\/artsadm\/status\/1058413444628656128?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1058413444628656128&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.juliesbicycle.com%2Fnews%2Fseason-for-change-cop24-blog https:\/\/twitter.com\/artsadm\/status\/1058417908156690432?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1058417908156690432&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.juliesbicycle.com%2Fnews%2Fseason-for-change-cop24-blog https:\/\/twitter.com\/artsadm\/status\/1058420389112696832?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1058420389112696832&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.juliesbicycle.com%2Fnews%2Fseason-for-change-cop24-blog https:\/\/twitter.com\/artsadm\/status\/1058421685911740419?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1058421685911740419&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.juliesbicycle.com%2Fnews%2Fseason-for-change-cop24-blog https:\/\/twitter.com\/artsadm\/status\/1058421685911740419?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1058421685911740419&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.juliesbicycle.com%2Fnews%2Fseason-for-change-cop24-blog Farhana Yamin also opened her discussion with a film, Rise: From One Island to Another, which depicts the poetic expedition by Kathy Jet\u00f1il-Kijiner of the Marshall Islands and Aka Nivi\u00e2na of Greenland.
