Generation Hope is a day of inspiring workshops exploring how creativity, culture and community can help us respond to the climate crisis. Through hands-on activities and guided discussions, participants will imagine better futures, develop practical skills, and explore new ways to take positive action in their own lives.

Bringing together artists, activists, scientists and young changemakers, Generation Hope creates an open space to share ideas, experiment with creative tools, and build confidence in shaping a more sustainable world. Whether through making, imagining or collaborating, the day invites participants to explore what climate action can look like when we centre creativity, curiosity and collective problem-solving.

Generation Hope empowers the next generation to turn concern into momentum — offering a hopeful, practical and engaging platform for young people to connect, create and lead.
