6/24「藝術作為社會挑戰的規則改變者Art is a Game Changer for Societal Challenges」國際線上論壇即日起開放報名。
蘭德利於日前分享了由Renaissance Now這個跨國與跨領域團隊所主辦的網路論壇，於台灣時間6/24下午3點～6點舉行，有興趣的朋友可以點擊下列連結報名參加。
Renaissance Now是由政府顧問、企業家、學者、藝術家以及科學家共同組成，以探索達成聯合國所制定可持續發展目標（SDGs）的協作方式。SDGs的實踐其實需要所有領域的共同參與從而帶動創新。因為每個目標都相互連結、相互依存，其複雜性讓人想起早期的現代文藝復興，政治家、藝術家、銀行家和科學家為推動已經過時的典範，共同承擔風險。因為傳染病而興起，不論是過去還是現在，我們都有機會和義務運用藝術的力量、創意文化的實踐和詮釋來推動公共政策的變革，以拓展人類的能力，同時推進SDGs的議程。
Dear Colleague,
2020 was a year of reckoning. The pandemic crisis forced us to think afresh and reorder priorities. Change will require systems thinking because survival depends on the environment; the environment depends on science and politics; and all these respond to arts and culture. Feverish feel-good activism is a short-cut that will not work. A new Renaissance, like the early modern one, demands courage and imagination to connect our various fields and generate behavioral change. It demands Art as the dynamic face of culture.
Many high-level conversations about culture and heritage remind policy makers to consider the shared beliefs, practices, and values that create communities. But preserving traditions alone will not lead to positive change. Art is the catalyzing force. It interrogates and explores possible solutions, the way that science advances. Social inclusion needs art to create new collective practices that are open to future challenges.
You are invited on June 24 (9 am – 12 pm ET) to make change. We will launch a bold initiative that combines our talents and resources, in business, government, natural and social sciences, arts, and culture. Already projected are a journal, “Cases for Culture,” and a certificate program for policymakers on “Arts and Development.” The working meeting will advance the initiative by facing challenges posed by policymakers, getting tips from game changers, and brainstorming in breakout rooms to imagine new policies.
