The Climate Heritage Network (CHN) is a global network of more than 250 member organisations committed to supporting communities in achieving the ambitions of the Paris Agreement by scaling up culture-based climate action. The new Action Plan announced today by the network of organisations, charities, government bodies, universities, memory and cultural institutions, and cultural and creative industries from around the world seeks to fill this gap.

In a stroke of #ClimateHeritage genius, on 15 March, Historic Environment Scotland is bringing one of the world’s leading climate change communicators to Edinburgh Castle to explore how we can inspire people to take climate action. The program, entitled “Now we have your attention: let’s talk climate action,” promises to break new ground in exploring the cultural heritage opportunities for climate change communication.
