VOICE Invites Stakeholders to Shape New Digital Platform for Artist-Led Environmental Innovation

VOICE, an EU-funded project connecting communities, artists, and industries to tackle environmental challenges, is inviting stakeholders to participate in two interactive online workshops this autumn. The sessions will directly inform the development of VOICE’s new digital platform — a pioneering resource designed to map innovative methods, showcase real-world impact, and foster cross-sector collaboration in environmental sustainability.

The platform will highlight the power of Art–Technology–Society Interactions (ATSI) in creating impactful, community-driven solutions. By bringing together diverse expertise, it aims to support artists, industries, and policymakers in delivering measurable environmental and social change.
