30 UNDER 30: AN INITIATIVE FOR 30 YOUNG PROFESSIONALS

To commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Communicating the Arts conference, we proudly launch a new initiative 30 under 30 in 2020. We aim to avail the upcoming generation of young professionals to stand at the forefront of the cultural scene and thrive.

This initiative is a mentoring project to support 30 young professionals under 30 years old who wish to develop their professional skills in the field of arts.

TOPIC : CLIMATE CHANGE

The 1st edition will be held under the theme ‘Climate Change’.

At Communicating the Arts, we strongly believe that cultural institutions should be activists and play an important role in global issues.

As the next generation of cultural leaders, these 30 research fellows will address the urgent topic of climate change issues. They will be searching the most innovative action plans implemented by cultural institutions tackling ‘Climate Change’.

AIMS

This one year initiative aims to support these incredible young talents to build up their abilities, investigate larger issues and help them to develop their network in the art sector.

At the end of the initiative, the young professionals will have a stronger professional base, a professional platform to help them draw the outlines of their career, an extended network in the arts world and international job opportunities.

TIME LINE

The 30 under 30 are working in pairs for three months (June-September 2020) and will present the best initiatives on climate change that they have selected.
