Climate empowerment & exhibitions: innovative audience engagement

Description
Exhibitions dealing with the climate and environmental crises have become widespread in cultural and scientific venues, with the aim not only of spreading knowledge, but also of providing the keys to taking action. An increasing number of venues have set themselves the goal of helping to fight eco-anxiety and promoting climate empowerment. In this context, what are the new paradigms in audience engagement? On the one hand, there are exhibitions that base their approach on prior opinion polls on the climate and environmental crises; on the other, there are projects that incorporate the opinions and feelings of audiences into the exhibition itineraries themselves; and there are exhibitions that are born out of dialogue with their audiences, with participatory programming that supports climate mobilisation in very concrete ways. These are just some of the innovative and very relevant ways in which cultural venues can embody their responsibility in relation to these issues.
