Climate Heritage Network

The Climate Heritage Network (CHN) works to unlock the power of culture from arts to heritage to empower people to imagine and realise low carbon, just, climate resilient futures.

The CHN is a voluntary, mutual support network of government agencies, civil society, cultural institutions, universities, businesses, and other organizations across the globe that are committed to tackling climate change and achieving the ambitions of the Paris Agreement. 

CHN members believe that arts, culture and heritage constitute an invaluable resource to help communities take transformative climate action. The CHN seeks to scale up culture-based climate action and to make climate policy people-centred through coordination and cooperation among its members.

Mobilized in 2018 during the Global Climate Action Summit and launched in 2019, the Climate Heritage Network works to re-orient climate policy, planning, and action at all levels to account for dimensions of culture - from arts to heritage.
