Care & Action: Symposium Brunch hosted by Buzzing Futures

An event to reflect on pollinator decline & biodiversity care in a brunch setting. Organized in the margins of the Arts of Change Symposium. Free entry. Registration required. On Sunday 25 October, as closing event of the Arts of Change Symposium on Care & Action, Buzzing Futures will host a brunch about a particular kind of care work: taking action for the environment; specifically, pollinators. We start with a guided visit to the Buzzing Futures Zine Exhibition, showcasing people’s action for pollinators. Over brunch, two short keynotes by Joosef Mikocki (City of Vienna), and Nynke Blömer (Pollinator Ambassadors, University of Cambridge) open the conversation. The second half sets the scene for informal exchanges with friends, experts, and stakeholders over food and coffee, where your ideas and questions take the lead. Buzzing Futures is a project by Pollinator Ambassadors and Biodiversity Action Europe. The Arts of Change Symposium is organised by forum n, with the support of the University of Applied Arts Vienna and the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna.
