Explore how art and culture can drive transformational systemic change in response to climate change as a public health emergency in this oration by Angharad Wynne-Jones, Facilitator of Creative Climate. Examine climate change beyond data points as a disruption to ecosystems, communities, and social wellbeing, while investigating how colonialism, extractive capitalism, and hyper-individualism have eroded adaptive values. Discover how storytelling, creative research, and collaborative cultural practices can reframe climate narratives and expand possibilities for health and justice. Learn about Creative Climate, Australia's First Nations and artist-led climate and arts peak body, and understand the intersection between creative expression and climate action. Engage with discussions on reimagining life-sustaining systems through artistic and cultural approaches, hosted by Professor Kathryn Bowen, Deputy Director at Melbourne Climate Futures.
