environmental commitment

We're driven by our unwavering commitment to reducing our carbon impact.

We recognise the urgent climate crisis and the importance of setting an international example. As we aim to support sustainability in the performing arts, we acknowledge the challenges that come with working internationally. While we strive for best practices, we understand that perfection may be elusive as we navigate new ways of working in environmentally conscious ways. We are firmly dedicated to continuous progress and learning.

Here's how we live up to our commitment:

Carbon Literacy Training: We provide carbon literacy training for our staff and artists, empowering them to effectively address climate-related issues and raising awareness.

Championing Climate Action: Wherever and whenever possible, we advocate for climate awareness and action, putting our support behind initiatives that have a positive impact.

Innovative International Collaborations: Through our artistic program, we actively explore new methods of international exchange and collaboration, striving to minimise our environmental impact while still fostering meaningful cultural dialogue and collaboration.

Sustainable Travel: We only undertake international travel when necessary, prioritising the use of the most sustainable travel methods available. We diligently record the environmental impact of our journeys and offset carbon emissions from these trips.

Transparent Sustainability Reporting: We promise to openly share our journey towards achieving carbon neutrality. This means sharing both our successes and failures as we work towards our sustainability goals.

Community Engagement: We actively encourage input and collaboration from our artistic community, including artists, staff, funders, partners, and organisations. If you have ideas on how we can become more environmentally responsible, we would love to hear from you.

Leading by Example: We are resolute in our determination to address the climate crisis. This means embracing sustainability in all aspects of our work and operations.

Together, we can make a difference.
