Event Series: Sustainability and independent artistic production – Producing Sustainably! The Role of Associations, Initiatives and Funding Institutions.

Over the course of five online formats that build upon each other, the Berlin Performing Arts Program will deal with the topics of sustainability and artistic production. Building upon discussion from the time before the pandemic, climate- and resource-relevant challenges for artists, production managers, members of the community and the institutions of the independent performing arts will be analyzed. Climate-conscious action and sustainable transformation will be placed in a cultural policy context and together, approaches will be elaborated, demands will be formulated and perspectives beyond the current crisis will be presented.
