Reimagining Museums for Climate Action
Конкурсантам предлагается переосмыслить не только облик музеев, но и их роль в решении проблемы климатических изменений. Как должен выглядеть музей в сегодняшних условиях, и какие функции в вопросах защиты окружающей среды он может на себя взять? Авторы восьми лучших работ получат денежное вознаграждение и возможность принять участие в итоговой выставке в Глазго.
пресс-релиз:
This competition invites you to think about how new approaches to the design, organisation and experience of museums can amplify and accelerate climate action in diverse contexts and at various scales, enabling museums and society to move farther, faster, together to a net-zero or zero-carbon future.
Museums come in many different shapes and sizes. Rather than focus on a specific location or type of museum, we invite proposals that unsettle and subvert the very foundations of museological thinking to support and encourage meaningful climate action. You can locate your museum anywhere, or suggest an approach that is not tied to a specific place. We invite design and concept proposals that are radically different from the ‘traditional’ museum, or that explore new ways for traditional museums to operate. Your response can address any aspect of museum design and activity, and the ideas can be as fantastical or as grounded as you see fit. We are not looking to judge proposals on their feasibility, but on the extent to which they reimagine the museum to bring about more equitable and sustainable futures in the climate change era.
In line with the core aims of the Glasgow Science Centre, we particularly welcome proposals that address the following two priority themes:
Those who have contributed least to the problem of climate change will suffer most from its impacts, both within and between countries. This is simply unfair. Climate change multiplies a range of social issues, driving up inequality and misery. Climate justice calls for a recognition of the principle of sustainability, that future generations’ abilities to meet their needs and live their lives should not be compromised by the activities of the present generation. Climate justice is about rights – yours, ours, everyone’s, and the rights of nature and other species. How can museums build, enhance and strengthen climate justice, in their own places, in broader society, and across the world?
How can the relationship between society, the environment and the economy be rebalanced so that human wealth is not created at the cost of the destruction of nature and the environment on which we all depend? How can museums help society decouple economic growth from environmental destruction? How can they help reverse the trends of extinctions, habitat destruction and resource depletion, and become net producers of positive environmental value as well as social value? How can museums help redefine ‘wealth’ or prosperity to include Planetary Health and One Health perspectives, which acknowledge that healthy humans require a healthy planet? How can they empower people to imagine and work towards a healthier and more just future by demonstrating the positive impact that living more sustainably can bring to individual lives?
