CHWA Awards - Climate

Climate Award in partnership with The Happy Museum Project and Culture Declares Emergency

Health, inequality and climate are interwoven consequences of how we as humans treat each other and the world around us.  

Joining forces with The Happy Museum Project and Culture Declares Emergency, we want to shine a light on the people and projects using creativity and culture to address these challenges.  

We are looking  for projects/organisations that are recognising the connections between climate, health inequalities and creativity/culture. 

Submissions could include projects that link mental health, climate justice and creativity, for example, or connect nature, culture and wellbeing. They might be about building “safe and brave places”, grassroots movements, internal campaigns that are raising awareness, or organisations instigating systemic changes in approaches to procurement, commissioning and selection of work and resources. These are just suggestions and we are happy to be surprised and delighted by practice we had never considered.

The deadline to apply for the CHWA Awards 2022 has now passed.

The Happy Museum Project

The Happy Museum Project looks at how the museum sector can respond to the challenge of creating a more sustainable future.

Culture Declares Emergency

We are a growing international movement of individuals and organisations in the cultural sector declaring climate and ecological emergency. This means telling the truth, taking action and seeking justice.
