Green Culture Fest 2015

During three days at Green Culture Fest we bring sustainability in Western Balkans to the forefront through:

• participating in insightful presentations, stimulating discussions, and inspiring workshops, in a peaceful and restorative setting.
• sharing knowledge, exchanging ideas and acquiring tools on how to incorporate sustainable practices into everyday work and living;
• hearing the latest industry news from around the globe from regional and international experts and talking with them face-to-face to widen professional creative networks;
• setting concrete goals and creating a specific plan of action for ensured progress;
• connecting various sectors, lead by the creative sector, Green Business, Green Science and Green Thinking, for an integrative approach that will bring concrete results.

To address several, most important aspects of sustainability in the creative industries at GCF, we bring four elements to the table: Green Creative Industries, Green Business, Green Science and Green Thinking. All of these topics are addressed in several cycles per day that look like this:

• Introductory presentations to familiarize the audience with the topic;
• Workshops where we experiment and apply our innovative ideas; and
• Reflection sessions to share our experiences and outcomes of the interactive workshops.

Culture and creativity allow us to look at the world from a different point of view, experience inspirational epiphanies and find innovative solutions to achieving a lifestyle that has a minimal impact on our planet.

Business makes the world go round. By expanding our thinking to encompass the resources, supplies and supply chains, we can put ourselves in a better position to influence the business world.

Science gathers and analyses information and produces knowledge needed to make us understand the state of our planet.

Green thinking is a simple circular concept - do good and good will return to you. In order to start and move in the right direction, we have to have the right mindset.
