Focal point: Culture of Mobility in the Time of Climate Change

On the Move, Arts and Theatre Institute (CZ), Center for Architecture and Metropolitan Planning (CZ) presented Focal point: Culture of Mobility in the Time of Climate Change—a public forum during On the Move's General Assembly in Prague, Czech Republic livestreaming on the global, commons-based peer produced HowlRound TV network at howlround.tv Thursday 25 April 2019 at 10:00 CEST (Prague, UTC +2) / 09:00 BST (London, UTC +1) / 08:00 UTC +0 / 4 a.m. EDT (New York, UTC -4).

What is the impact of the international exchange in culture on the climate of our planet? How does it influence today cities and how can we measure it? How can public institutions give a boost to sustainable mobility within their funding programs? Discuss and share your ideas how to cultivate international cultural experience with minimal impact on the environment.

The conference was held by the Arts and Theatre Institute (ATI) and the Center for Architecture and Urban Planning (CAMP) as a part of the plenary meeting in Prague of On the Move—the cultural mobility information network.
