  • Value proposition

    Bringing the power of arts, culture, and heritage to climate action.

    The Climate Heritage Network is a global network whose members are committed to mobilising arts, culture and heritage to address climate change and support communities in achieving the ambitions of the Paris Agreement. The Network seeks to scale up culture-based climate action and to foreground the cultural dimensions of climate policy through coordination and cooperation among its members.

    We believe that arts, culture and heritage constitute an invaluable resource to help communities reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and strengthen adaptive capacity. CHN members work with all types of culture including arts and creative industries; museums and libraries; landscapes, heritage sites and archaeology; and intangible heritage, traditional knowledge and Indigenous ways of knowing. Network members include:

    - Arts, culture and heritage units of government at all levels.
    - Indigenous Peoples’ governments, representative bodies and organisations.
    - Site management agencies.
    - NGOs and other organisations.
    - Universities and research organisations.
    - Design firms, artists and other businesses.

    Despite profound connections between climate change and culture, today there are thousands of arts, culture and heritage actors and advocates whose talents have not yet been mobilized on climate change issues, including administrators, anthropologists, archaeologists, architects, artists, conservators, curators, engineers, historians, librarians, musicians, urban planners, site managers, as well as scientists, researchers, teachers and scholars and carriers of indigenous knowledge and local wisdom whose talents have not yet been mobilized on climate change issues. This is so even in jurisdictions that have made ambitious climate action pledges via networks like the Under 2 Coalition. The Climate Heritage Network aims to flip that paradigm.
