Abstract:
In the last years, many cultural organizations are becoming more engaged with sustainability related processes, in line with the changes that are taking place on a broader societal level. Especially after 2015, when the Agenda 2030 has been endorsed by the United Nations, a new awareness spread within the global community on various scales, from the highest political office to the individual citizen. This research presents an analysis of cultural organizations that have made sustainability their main mission, through the development of cross-disciplinary projects that have led to the strengthening of collaborative forms between sectors. As an emerging movement, the characteristics of this sub-sector in the cultural sphere have not yet been studied, so the purpose is to provide an overview of how these organizations work, what kind of relationships they establish with their stakeholders and how their work contributes to building a more just and sustainable society.
