Description
Summary:The “Good Enough Transformation” (GET) Project explores how grassroots art and culture organizations in nine countries—Burkina Faso, Canada, Cyprus, Denmark, France, Malaysia, Mexico, and Morocco—use creative industries to address climate change. It highlights social innovation as a key framework for both ideas and methodologies. With global environmental policies falling short of meeting the Paris Climate Agreement’s 1.5°C target, the GET project shows how local creative solutions tackle socio-environmental challenges. While individual community projects may have limited impact, collective localized actions worldwide can drive a “good enough transformation,” compensating for national government inaction. As communities combat climate change, policies must better support local green initiatives, and indigenous voices must be central to environmental policy and decision-making.
