The Editorial Committee on the Climate Justice Code for Our House is on Fire

On 25 and 26 October 2019 Casco Art Institute: Working for the Commons organized the second Assembly for commoning art institutions entitled "Our House is on Fire." In this recording part of the editorial committee - Thomas de Groot, Clementine Edwards, Teresa Borasino - introduces the Climate Justice Code. Following Casco’s inaugural annual Assembly in 2018, "Our House is on Fire" turned our attention to developing a climate justice code for art and art institutions in response to the current climate crisis and the question: What practical measures will art and art institutions take to care for our planetary commons with the power of imagination? The second annual Assembly was developed by a steering committee consisting of: artist Annette Krauss, researcher and organizer Ying Que - who co-organized the inaugural Assembly Elephants in the Room in 2018 - and Casco Art Institute: Binna Choi and Yolande van der Heide with support from Rosa Paardenkooper. The Climate Justice Code editorial committee consisted of: Platform BK: Joram Kraaijeveld; Commons Network: Thomas de Groot, Taru Aitola; Fossil Free Culture: Teresa Borasino, Harriet Bergman; artist Clementine Edwards.
