The Climate Toolkit from the Phipps Conservatory aims to create and sustain momentum in and between cultural heritage institutions through free resources and building connections. Lindsey speaks with Andrew Lampl and Jennifer Torrance from the Phipps about their roles in developing the Toolkit’s framework and resources and facilitating connections between institutions to create catalytic change.
Using themes from the SDGs, each institution has free rein to build the goals and agenda’s they want to work towards and join working groups built by the Phipps or internally to make sustainable changes.
Jennifer highlights her joy in working with youth climate groups to empower the next generation as they navigate growing up in a world that they know needs active change.
Andrew reminds us how pivotal it is for the cultural heritage sector to take the lead towards sustainable action.
We can have such an impact on our future planet and communities when we work together. Jennifer and Andrew are ready to share how Climate Joy together can help us avoid the inaction that comes from feeling alone in Climate Anxiety.
