3rd Culture x Climate Forum Istanbul

The Culture x Climate Forum is back. For its third edition, we’re heading to Türkiye. 🌍 This November, COP31 is taking place in Antalya, Türkiye. Before the negotiations begin, we're gathering artists, cultural practitioners, activists, and policymakers in Istanbul for the 3rd Culture × Climate Forum - one of the world's great cultural capitals, and the perfect launchpad for what comes next. Following editions in Baku (COP29) and Bonn (SB62), the Entertainment + Culture Pavilion is co-organising the Forum together with EkoFilm: Sürdürülebilir Yapım Platformu (Sustainable Production Platform), Esmiyor, and the Culture Translators Project. We’re bringing the creative and climate worlds together ahead of COP31, and feeding practitioner voices directly into the Culture Global Stocktake (CGST) before its Draft 3 showcase in Antalya. The Forum is designed to activate Istanbul as a site of climate imagination and to leave a lasting footprint in Türkiye's arts and cultural landscape, nurturing transnational connections between artists, activists, and communities who will keep building the culture-climate movement long after the negotiations close. 📩 Interested or want to know more?
