Project: EMPACT – Empathy and Sustainability: The Art of Thinking Like a Mountain 
Conference: Descubre el Futuro Sostenible: Workshop, Fundación Antonio Gala, Cordoba 
Abstract: The workshop in the context of Descubre el Futuro Sostenible at Fundación Antonio Gala, Cordoba, investigates, re-ethinks and re-imagines materialities found across the city of Cordova, as new possibilities of thinking, feeling and connecting with the current socio-political conditions. Through the practice of walking, tracing, documenting, collecting and re-configuring (in various means and art processes), these new -art- gestures within the materials, investigate modalities of re-engaging with notions of empathy and sustainability.
Description: EMPACT|Empathy and Sustainability The Art of Thinking Like a Mountain is a 24-month transnational cooperation project among the Cyprus University of Technology (CY) as lead partner, Espacio Rojo (SP), Nature, Art & Habitat Residency (IT), National Academy of Theatre and Film Arts “Kr. Sarafov ” (NATFA) (BG), Umetnostna Galerija Maribor (SL), Vorres Museum (GR), and Fondazione Lamberto Puggelli (IT), which is co-funded by the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union. With this project, we adopt an innovative approach to advocating and acting upon environmental challenges by exploring the empathy-sustainability relationship through the arts. The project focuses on the power of arts to rebuild trust in a sustainable future and a more inclusive society, stimulating creativity in citizens to find solutions and opportunities for the future. EMPACT acknowledges the New European Agenda for Culture strategic objectives, by focusing on the promotion of cultural participation, the mobility of artists, the promotion of skills for artists and creative professionals, and the potential of arts to foster sustainable development and social cohesion. Considering the challenging recovery from the pandemic that society faces, we support that a participational empathic model is required, which will set the basis for dynamic actions and creations with regards to sustainability. EMPACT aims at supporting a diverse set of cultural players to take an active role promoting empathy and sustainability in their respective local, national and transnational/European communities, advancing a better understanding of the ways in which empathy-related arts contribute to individual sustainability orientations and broader environmental sustainability. - @EMPACT
