ArtImpact2030-Initiative

 

 created in 2018 with the aim to shed light on s contribution

from the civilian sector to sustainable development:

art professionals, -educators and -promoters,

art-and cultural institutions for 17 SDGs

 

How can professionals from art 

engage and contribute to the realization of

Sustainable Development Goals?

How can the impact of art in maintaining the current challenges connected with rising natural disasters and violence among & toward the human world and diverse environments be measured?`

 

Art as a form of Cultural Diplomacy conducts diverse cultural expressions. 

Art-based mediation opens imaginative and real spaces for dialogues and diverse arenas for barrier-free interaction and collaboration.

As a politically responsive act, artistic expression embodied in dance, various media, and literacy, can reach & touch from a distance,

and affect people, their decisions, and their emotional states. 

 

One deliberate example of ecologically responsible art practice and activism is given in the heritage of the Austrian-born international artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser.

Ecology is the touchstone of Hundertwasser's sensitivity to art as a matter of life in sync with the laws of nature. His immense respect for nature aroused in him the desire to protect it against the attacks made on it by man and industry. Hundertwasser began his involvement as an ecological activist with manifestos, essays, and demonstrations, which were later followed by architecture models that he used to illustrate his ideas of afforestation of the roof, tree tenants, and the window right, as well as by architectural shapes, such as eye-slit houses, the high-rise meadow house, the spiral house or the pit house. Next to public tree plantings around the world, he planted over 150,000 trees in his valley in New Zealand with the help of farmers and construction companies, designed post stamps for the United Nations for the occasion of the 35th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, have initiated and supported efforts to oppose nuclear proliferation among other activist initiatives. In his art, Hundertwasser campaigned for a life in harmony with nature, for an environmentally conscious life, and conveyed the “paths to the development of the creative powers in every human being.”

 

Applying Hundertwasser´s thought and conviction to ecology, the ACD-Agency for Cultural Diplomacy team has created the ArtImpact2030 initiative to build a sustainable platform for the development of international partnerships and cross-sectoral collaboration on the nexus of arts, sciences, and diplomacy, and to shed light on initiatives and contributions deriving from arts, in the sustainable development process.

 

Calling upon individuals, communities, institutions, organizations, and all interested to engage in, introduce their good practices, connect, collaborate, and contribute to the common prosperity, ArtImpact2030-Manifesto has been created as a document about a shared commitment to the UN Agenda 2030 and the 17 SDGs as our common value compass and framework for activities.

 

Connecting art practices as a form of cultural diplomacy in the sustainable development process with sciences & new media technologies, ACD-Team aims to provide examples of the impactful contribution of professionals from arts in communication, promotion, and active engagement in sustainable development policy communication.

The evident impact of the artistic intervention on environmental protection

is given in the lifelong dedicated engagement of the Austrian-born artist and ecological activist Friedensreich Hundertwasser, who has left impressive and timeless impactful examples on life arts

in sync with nature.

 

Applying sources grounded in Hundertwasser´s ecological activism to raise critical awareness, but also conducting contemporary artworks for promotion of the scientific developments, methods, and strategies that support Sustainable Development within all sectors, and considering the art as a tool for the promotion of values and attitudes as proclaimed by the United Nations in the Agenda2030, ACD-team has started projects and initiatives with ACD-Ambassadors and partners by connecting arts, sciences, and cultural diplomacy.

 

 ACD-president has developed educational art projects based on Hundertwasser´s art and ecological thought with ACD-Ambassadors such as Árvore da Vida2030 in Rio de Janeiro, Houses without bordersLet´s Brick!- Austria-JapanArt*Health, projects with  Austrian  Cultural Forums and Austrian libraries abroad, Dance Arts CD projects, ERASMUS+ project activities inspired by Hundertwasser´s art & architecture, among other activities.

  

 

In 2020, during the first C-19 lockdown,

we have created online projects to keep connected with our partners, ACD-Ambassadors, and those who are interested to connect, and also to support our solidarity actions and activities, such as IkuBi2030-Children Radio Project in Kenya, Maragoli, C-19 art response: Women.Art.Solidarity and KuBiPa-COOPS for decent work,

virtual inTalk sessions 

and Focusgrouop consultations

  Let´s BrickinTalk Sessions on UNESCO Futures of Education

to co-create learning settings for nowadays and the future. 

 

EXAMPLES

from Europe and worldwide

 

Opera, Ballet, Sustainability 

 

At the Finnish National Opera and Ballet, responsibility is one of the core values:
financial and artistic responsibility to society, responsibility for
personnel and environmental responsibility are the three key elements of responsible work. 
Responsibility involves continuous development and improvement. 
"We are committed to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. In 2021, we selected five key goals to which the Finnish National Opera and Ballet will particularly contribute: Quality Education, Decent Work and Economic Growth, Sustainable Cities and Communities, Responsible Consumption, Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions. We consider these goals every time we review our focus areas. They also help us to further develop our sustainability reporting.

 The most comprehensive report on the impact of art practices on health and well-being with a focus on European countries has been synthesized in the report of the World Health Organisation (WHO) in 2019. 

 

One deliberate example of the evidence of music as a psychoactive stimulant can be seen in the example of the prima ballerina with Alzheimer, shared by the Spanish organization Música Para Despertar. The Oscar-winning actor Antonio Banderas shared the video entitled "The emotional power of music" 

 

Art4Health-owned by the WHOs Department of Reproductive Health and Research was launched in 2006 as an innovative advocacy project, using art to increase awareness and promote action to improve reproductive health, especially for women and children, and was hosted by the IAEA in Vienna in 2010. https://www.iaea.org/newscenter/news/most-dangerous-day-your-life

ArtImpact2030-Manifesto

 

Zivilgesellschaftliche Initiative für die Verwirklichung von Globalen Zielen UN SDGs
mittels Partnerschaften im Feld der Kulturdiplomatie

Connect&Act

 

Im Jahr 2015 wurde die „Agenda 2030“unter dem Titel "Transformation unserer Welt“ beim Gipfeltreffen der Vereinten Nationen (UN) beschlossen. Alle 193 Mitgliedstaaten der UN verpflichten sich, auf die Umsetzung der 17 nachhaltigen Entwicklungsziele "Sustainable Development Goals" SDGs auf nationaler, regionaler und internationaler Ebene bis zum Jahr 2030 hinzuarbeiten. Diese Figuration aus 17 Zielen stellt einen universellen Wertekatalog dar, der auf einer gemeinsamen Vision aller Vertretungen aus den Vereinten Nationen beruht, nämlich „einer Welt mit guter Lebensqualität, gesunder Ernährung, der Möglichkeit hochwertiger Bildung, umfassender Gesundheitsversorgung, gleichen Chancen, in der ein gutes Leben für alle Menschen möglich ist und in der die Erhaltung der Natur selbstverständlich ist.“
Durch die Umsetzung der Ziele soll eine nachhaltige Entwicklung auf ökonomischer, sozialer sowie ökologischer Ebene nachhaltig gewährleistet werden.

 

Die Hochwertige Bildung als eines der 17 globalen Ziele wurde als Ziel Nr.4 (SDG4) im Weltaktionsprogramm der UNESCO, dem „Global Action Programme on Education for Sustainable Development“ wie auf nationaler Ebene in Österreich im Grundsatzerlass „Umweltbildung für nachhaltige Entwicklung“ festgeschrieben und umfasst die Förderung von inklusiver, gleichberechtigter und hochwertiger Bildung und Möglichkeiten lebenslangen Lernens für alle.
Bildung für nachhaltige Entwicklung fördert Inklusion durch ihre Prinzipien wie Partizipation, Situations- und Handlungsorientierung. Durch den globalen Horizont hat Bildung für nachhaltige Entwicklung zudem einen engen Bezug zu den Themen Migration und Diversität.


Kulturelle Bildung umfasst sowohl die kreative Entwicklung des Individuums als auch das Verständnis regionaler und internationaler Kunst und Kultur. Nach UNESCO ist die „kulturelle Bildung ein zentraler Bestandteil einer umfassenden Persönlichkeitsbildung und schafft wesentliche Voraussetzungen für eine aktive Teilnahme am kulturellen Leben einer Gesellschaft.“
Das Globale Ziel 17. 17 (Multi-Akteur Partnerschaften) besteht darin, die Bildung wirksamer öffentlicher, öffentlich-privater und zivilgesellschaftlicher Partnerschaften aufbauend auf den Erfahrungen und Mittelbeschaffungsstrategien bestehender Partnerschaften zu unterstützen und zu fördern.


Wie kann die Kunst- und die (interkulturelle) Vermittlung zur Verwirklichung von Globalen Zielen (UN SDG ́s) beitragen? Welche Partnerschaften und Kooperationen können im Feld der Kulturdiplomatie zur Entwicklung eines spartenübergreifenden und internationalen Netzwerks mittels Kunst- und interkultureller Vermittlung initiiert werden? An welche öko-sozialen künstlerischen Ansätze kann im gegenwärtigen Nachhaltigkeitsdiskurs angeknüpft werden?


Mit diesen Fragen und aus persönlicher Überzeugung von der Wirksamkeit von Kunst- /Kulturvermittlungspraxis für die Bewustseinsbildung im Nachhaltigkeitsdiskurs mittels Partnerschaften im Feld der Kulturdiplomatie, wurde im Jahr 2018 die Initiative ArtImpact2030 von ACD- Agency for Cultural Diplomacy Präsidentin Tatjana Christelbauer ins Leben gerufen.

In diesem Rahmen wurde auch das ArtImpact2030-Manifesto kreiert, welches während der Veranstaltung ArtImpact2030 am 22.11.2018 in Wien vollendet und zur weiteren Unterzeichnungen über diese Webseite veröffentlicht wurde.


Das Gesamtwerk des in Wien geborenen internationalen Künstlers Hundertwasser und insbesondere seine Umweltaktionen bilden einen gedanklichen Rahmen für diese Initiative. Hundertwasser gestaltete Original Manifesto-Art-Print u. a. für die Rettung der Meere, gegen die Kernenergie, für den Schutz des Regenwaldes. Seine Umweltposter wurden in hohen Auflagen gedruckt und deren Verkaufserlöse an Umweltinitiativen und Umweltorganisationen gespendet. Die Gestaltung von Umweltposter sowie die Kreationen von Briefmarkenserien für die Vereinten Nationen war Teil seiner Strategie, das Bewusstsein der Menschen für den Umweltschutz und somit die Erhaltung und den Schutz der freien Natur zu aktivieren. Hundertwassers Umweltposter und auch andere Werke sind mehrsprachig beschriftet, die Motive enthalten die Naturlandschaften und Menschen aus diversen Ländern und Kontinenten.

 

Durch die Sensibilisierung für das Leben in der Harmonie mit der Natur soll auch das Bewusstsein über die Notwendigkeit einer globalen friedlichen Ko-existenz gestärkt werden, die auf der Gleichwürdigkeit und auf der Gleichberechtigung gründet und die Mit- Verantwortung für achtsamen Umgang mit allen Ressourcen mit einschließt.
