On The Ground: Climate Action
This year’s On the Ground programme will focus on climate action and ways that community cinemas can reduce their impact on the climate and become greener cinemas.
We are looking for 8 forward-thinking community cinemas, film societies or film clubs from across the UK who are:
· open to new ideas,
· have the ability to dream big about the possibilities and think collaboratively,
· and are ready to share their experiences and learning with others.
Taking place over three sessions (running September, November 2022 and February 2023) the focus group will explore the possibilities, as well as the barriers, facing the community cinema sector in regards to engaging in climate action. After this, members of the group will commit to an idea of their own to test with their cinema over a three month period.
If you are interested in climate action, or have been wondering what your organisation can do to reduce its impact, however big or small – join On the Ground and together we can create positive change for our communities and our climate.
Find out how you can get involved. Deadline for expression of interest 31st August 2022.
On the Ground is supported by the BFI, awarding funds from the National Lottery.
