Creative Australia will invest $800,000 over four years to support Creative Climate , a newly established consortium dedicated to driving impactful change and embedding sustainable practices for the creative industries.
Creative Climate brings together expertise across climate response, creative practice and leadership. This consortium is made up of Angharad Wynne-Jones, Catherine Jones, Green Music Australia, Centre for Reworlding, pvi collective, A Climate for Art and Matt Wicking.
The investment is part of Creative Australia’s 2025-28 Delivery Partners program, a stream of multi-year investment, supporting sector wide initiatives that benefit artists, creative workers, organisations, and enterprises.
Creative Climate was appointed as the Delivery Partner for Climate Action Services, following an open call for proposals.
CEO Adrian Collette AM said:
“We recognise there is growing demand from the sector for leadership and practical solutions to address climate challenges. Creative Climate will equip the sector with the expertise and tools needed to embed sustainable practices, empowering artists, organisations and creative businesses to adapt and thrive in a changing world. This investment reflects our commitment to enabling sector-led solutions to build a resilient and sustainable future for the creative industries.”
Consortium Co-Facilitator Angharad Wynne-Jones said:
“The creative sector is already engaging with climate action in powerful ways, but there is a clear need for coordinated support to scale these efforts. Creative Climate brings together leading practitioners who understand both the complexity of these challenges, and the opportunities for artists and creative organisations to drive change.”
Green Music Australia CEO Berish Bilander said:
“We are excited to collaborate with Creative Australia and our consortium partners to provide the sector with practical tools and knowledge needed to integrate sustainability into their operations and practice. This initiative aims to ensure climate action is embedded at the heart of the creative industries as we collectively work together to build a more resilient future.”
Creative Climate will share further program details and updates during 2025.
