The eARTh Climate Fellowship aims to facilitate the creation of climate art that will trigger behavioural change among citizens. Four selected fellows will work with mentors in the areas of
- *** Poetry and performance (visual words)
- *** Music and presentation
- *** Visual art and communication
- *** Multimedia and storytelling
They will participate in a series of workshops that will educate them on the science of climate change and create art informed by this education.
The nine-month fellowship programme will begin in January 2024 and last until September 2024. Fellows will create individual pieces of art from January to July. Between July and September, they will work together to create an artistic piece that delves into issues of climate change. Their work will be displayed during the second eARTh Initiative event to be held in October 2024.
