Climate Change and Community-Driven Climate Action Through in Manitoba, Minnesota and Northwestern Ontario
We tackle climate change through creative resilience, arts-based climate entrepreneurship, and community-led adaptation.

Fusing culture, sustainability, and entrepreneurship, we’re creating bold, place-based strategies for a more resilient future.
