ABOUT THIS WEBINAR

ClientEarth Summit - Day 2 Global landscape, global players

Session 9: Papa Don’t Preach: music industry & communicating climate change
10 November at 9:00am PST | 12:00pm EST | 5:00pm GMT - Duration 45 minutes

You don’t have to work in the environmental sector to speak effectively about climate change. How can the creative industries and those with a platform in music and popular culture best use it to advocate for environmental causes?
Musicians and those in the creative industries have the power to bring people together like no other mediums can. The messages from artists have a long history of inspiring movements for social and environmental change. In the face of the climate emergency, how can the creative industries navigate championing the causes they support while continuing to build genuine in-depth reciprocal relationships with audiences, fans and peers?

Please join us for a conversation focused on actionable takeaways for artists, music, creative industries and anyone who would like to be part of inspiring positive change at scale at this crucial time for people and planet.
