Space for Action Mis­sion:

Heal the soul, Heal the com­mu­ni­ty, Heal the earth”

Space for Action is a call for all humans to con­vene, process, and make progress on the exis­ten­tial threat posed by cli­mate change through curat­ed col­lec­tive expe­ri­ences at the inter­sec­tion of art, sci­ence, and cul­ture. As a for­mat, Space for Action aims to 1) address and de-stig­ma­tize the feel­ings of iso­la­tion and pow­er­less­ness that accom­pa­ny this threat, there­by mak­ing space in our hearts and minds for action, and 2) pro­vide lit­er­al (and vir­tu­al) space for peo­ple to engage with one anoth­er, the issues, and their cul­tur­al impli­ca­tions to fos­ter real inno­va­tion and to re-imag­ine our soci­ety post-cli­mate change.
