D6: culture in transit

Our Board

The D6 Culture in Transit board has leadership roles across the organisation, from governance through to project and subject matter areas of expertise. Committed to cultural rights and the role of the arts in social and environmental justice, board members bring a wealth of experience  and networks spanning academia, international development, governance, ethics and artistic practice. In addition to regular board meetings and an annual strategic planning day,  they engage through interconnected, open and transparent co-producing methodologies with staff, artists and partners on targeted projects, programmes and policies.
