How can Art & Sustainability interact with each other?

Josefine Geiger (RUG) is an environmental psychologist and she collaborated with designers and artists to better understand the extent to which, how and why design and art can promote pro-environmental actions. Following a novel interdisciplinary approach, integrating insights from design, art and environmental psychology, they designed packages and an art installation aiming to stimulate pro-environmental actions. In her presentation, she will talk about the interdisciplinary process, the results and implications of these projects for tackling climate change.
