Creative Climate Futures – Stories From the Future

‘Stories From the Future’ represents the culmination of our Creative Climate Futures project, including voices from the pioneer neighbourhoods, local community workers, our embedded artists, and steering group members, about the impact the project had on them. The results truly reflect the scope and scale of this project.

Creative Climate Futures spent three years working in Easterhouse and the Gorbals, collaborating with embedded artists Elena Mary Harris and Rebecca Fraser, and communities in new and exciting ways to unlock climate action.  The project had climate justice at its centre – recognising that our response to climate change must also tackle inequity and its underlying causes. The result has been communities which act more confidently, speak more powerfully, and understand the necessity of adaptation and resilience.

Culture for Climate Scotland worked on Creative Climate Futures with project lead, sustainability charity Verture, and partners Community Land Scotland, Glasgow Council for the Voluntary Sector, the Scottish Communities Climate Action Network and Glasgow City Council.
