Environmental policy

We D6: Culture in Transit declare a climate and ecological emergency. We pledge to work with and support our community and partners, and hold our government to account in tackling this emergency, and we call on others to do the same.

We are working to change and adapt to sustainable practices internally, as well as with the people and partners we work with locally and internationally. We will continue to do what is possible to enable dialogue and expression about the effects of the emergency and the changes that are needed to support the planet.

We acknowledge that tackling the climate crisis must be done in a fair and equitable way through the lenses of social, political and environmental injustices.

Our Environmental Policy sets out our commitment to achieve environmental sustainability across our working environment and practice. We have developed a comprehensive Environmental Action Plan and are calculating our carbon footprint in order to gain a better understanding of our impact on the environment. We will continue to measure and control our impact. 

As a visual arts producer, we address three areas of responsibility:
  • Process - the responsibility we have to reduce our carbon footprint in the design and delivery of activities, and in the running of the organisation
  • Content - the subject of the artworks and capacity building programmes
  • Advocacy and influence - the voice we have to speak from the project (alongside partners) to audiences including communities, artists, policy makers and civil society

To achieve this we are participating in Julie’s Bicycle Accelerator Programme, a collaboration between arts organisations and Julie’s Bicycles, to advance sustainable practice and share insights with our peers and the wider sector. D6 is included in their Climate Justice Hub, which makes the case for tackling the climate crisis through the multiple, interconnected lenses of social, political and environmental injustices and shares creative responses and resources for understanding climate justice.
​

D6 is part of the Culture Declares Emergency movement declaring a climate and ecological emergency. We pledge to tell truths, take action and seek justice.
