The Creative Climate Action Fund is seeking collaborative, creative projects which engage the public on climate action. In order to encourage partnerships, we are happy to facilitate a unique opportunity to create links through an online networking session.

• If you are a creative practitioner/organisation, artist, collective or cultural organisation, this may be an opportunity to create a partnership that could enhance reach, scale or input on climate action.
• If you are a Local Authority, environmental/climate organisation, educational institution, NGO, company or charity this may provide you with a forum to forge links with creative, artistic and cultural partners.

This session will be hosted on Zoom with a number of online breakout rooms based on location which you can join. A facilitator will allow participants to present a 30 second overview of yourself or your organisation, and who you would be interested in connecting with.

We will encourage you to make direct connections via private chat. Contact details will not be held or shared by the organisers, and this session will not be recorded.

Spaces will be limited therefore it is recommended you register in advance to secure a place. The zoom link will be emailed to you shortly before the event.

Please join the meeting, starting at 4.00 pm using the link below:

About the Creative Climate Action Fund

The Creative Ireland Programme in collaboration with the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications is delighted to announce the launch of Creative Climate Action. The €2 million fund, the first of its kind in Ireland, is for creative projects which can meaningfully connect people with profound changes happening in our environment, society and economy arising from climate change.

Creative Climate Action is now looking for proposals which can use creative and artistic approaches, to transform connection and awareness into climate action and behaviour change. The fund is open to a wide variety of artforms and mediums across the creative and cultural sectors, including dance, film, literature, music, opera, architecture, street arts and spectacle, theatre, traditional arts, visual arts, cultural heritage, architecture, circus, libraries, museums, design of all kinds, animation and games, the audiovisual sector, publishing and fashion.

For further information on the fund and full details on how to apply, please visit https://creativeireland.submit.com/. The closing date for applications is Friday the 21st of May at 5.00 pm.
