Creative Climate Connections: Enabling Cultural Exchange between Young People in South Wales and Young indigenous People in the Brazilian Amazon

该项目将是由Paul HERITAGE教授（PI）领导的人民宫殿项目（PPP）、Kuikuro土著协会（IFAX）、Wauja的Tulukai土著协会（AIT）和Dirty Protest Theatre（威尔士）之间正在进行的研究合作的一个鼓舞人心的补充。自2015年以来，PPP与新古地区的社区密切合作，与库伊库罗和沃贾社区开展了蓬勃发展的文化交流，推动了一系列关于土著文化和气候紧急情况的研究项目、艺术驻留、交流、展览、电影和数字装置。这件作品吸引了从南伦敦到北美到威尼斯双年展的公众观众，最新的装置将在格拉斯哥的cop26上开放。“肮脏的抗议”（威尔士）是PPP项目的第三个长期合作伙伴，该项目将首次吸引来自英国和新古的年轻人参与这项研究的三个关键方面：*通过文化生产的行动主义和提高认识*数字技术作为保护文化遗产和应对气候紧急情况的工具的作用*将文化机构重新构想为气候行动的空间。该项目旨在动员20名年龄在14-18岁之间的年轻人参与气候行动，让他们参与PPP与新大学正在进行的研究合作，为他们提供各种创造性技能，以表达他们对气候变化的政治观点。该项目也是一个解决新古和南威尔士老年人和年轻人之间代际差距的机会，他们不同的认同感、与各自社区传统的关系以及对技术的参与导致了对自然世界和气候变化的明显不同的态度。作为项目负责人，HERITAGE将与项目合作伙伴（IFAX、AIT和Dirty Protest）以及四名研讨会主持人合作：TAKUMA Kuikuro和PIRATA Waura，他们是居住在新古、帕斯克尔的土著电影制作人，以及Catriona FALLOW博士，他是英国的讲师、研讨会主持人，也是PPP研究开发团队的一员。工作坊将于2021年9月至11月分6期（每月2期）举办，共有20名参与者：5名来自纽波特，5名来自朗达Cynon Taf山谷（RCT）， 5名来自巴西马托格罗索州新古土著地区的Kuikuro Ipatse村，5名来自新省的Wauja Piyulaga村。这些工作坊将以艺术为基础，探索三种相互关联的创作方法：讲故事、电影制作和表演。来自南美和英国正在进行的PPP研究项目的演讲嘉宾将分享他们的工作和见解。在项目过程中，参与者将对所探索的想法和技术做出回应，从而产生多媒体表演和一系列视频，然后将在2021年11月的在线展示中公开首映，其中包括与创意团队成员和参与者的介绍，讨论和问答。除了线上活动外，还将在新古原住民领地的Ipatse和Piyulaga村进行放映，如果新冠疫情限制允许，还可能在英国进行现场演出（由Dirty Protest在新港Le Public Space主办）。该项目的创意成果也将于2021年11月作为PPP参与活动的一部分进行传播，该活动将在cop26气候行动重塑博物馆期间在格拉斯哥科学博物馆展出。2021年11月以后，这些创意成果将通过PPP的网站（附带项目信息、文档和书面反思）在线托管，并通过PPP活跃的社交媒体渠道（包括https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQOuXQaUsnLv1tio5KpINag）传播，以继续接触到广泛的全球受众。

This project will be an inspiring addition to ongoing research collaborations led by Professor Paul HERITAGE (PI) between People's Palace Projects (PPP), the Kuikuro Indigenous Association (IFAX), the Tulukai Indigenous Association of the Wauja (AIT) and Dirty Protest Theatre (Wales).Since 2015, PPP has worked closely with communities in the Xingu to develop a thriving cultural exchange with the Kuikuro and Wauja that has enabled a range of research projects, artistic residencies, exchanges, exhibitions, films and digital installations on indigenous culture and the climate emergency. This work has engaged public audiences from South London to North America to Venice Biennale, with the latest installation due to open in Glasgow for COP-26.Drawing a third long-standing PPP project partner, Dirty Protest (Wales) into this exchange for the first time, this project will engage young people from the UK and the Xingu in three key aspects of this research:* Activism and awareness-raising through cultural production* The role of digital technologies as tool for preserving cultural heritage and combating the climate emergency* Reimagining cultural institutions as spaces for climate action.This project aims to mobilise 20 young people aged 14-18 to climate action by engaging them in PPP's ongoing research collaboration with the Xingu, equipping them with a variety of creative skills to express their own political views on climate change. The project is also an opportunity to address the intergenerational gap between older and younger citizens in both the Xingu and South Wales, whose differing sense of identity, relationships to the traditions of their respective communities, and engagement with technology contribute to markedly different attitudes to the natural world and climate change.As PI, HERITAGE will work in collaboration with the Project Partners (IFAX, AIT and Dirty Protest), and four workshop facilitators: TAKUMA Kuikuro and PIRATA Waura, indigenous filmmakers based in the Xingu, PASKELL, and Dr Catriona FALLOW, a UK-based lecturer, workshop facilitator and part of PPP's Research Development team. The proposed workshops will be delivered over 6 sessions between September and November 2021 (2 per month) with 20 participants:- 5 from Newport- 5 from the Rhondda Cynon Taf Valleys (RCT)- 5 from the Kuikuro Ipatse Village, Xingu Indigenous Area, Mato Grosso, Brazil- 5 from the Wauja Piyulaga Village, XinguThese workshops will be arts-based and explore three interlinked creative approaches: storytelling, filmmaking and performance. A selection of guest speakers from ongoing PPP research projects in South America and the UK will attend to share their work and insights.During the course of the programme, participants will respond to the ideas and techniques explored, resulting in a multi-media performance and series of videos, which will then premiere publicly during an online showcase in November 2021 that will include an introduction, discussions and Q&A with member of the creative team and participants. Alongside this online event will be further screenings in the Ipatse and Piyulaga villages in the Xingu Indigenous Territory, as well as the possibility of a live, in-person performance in the UK (hosted by Dirty Protest at Le Public Space, Newport) if COVID restrictions allow.The project's creative outcomes will also be disseminated in November 2021 as part of PPP's engagement campaign around its installation at Glasgow Science Museum within Reimagining Museums for Climate Action at COP-26. Beyond November 2021, these creative outcomes will then be hosted online via PPP's website (with accompanying project information, documentation and written reflection) and disseminated via PPP's active social media channels including https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQOuXQaUsnLv1tio5KpINag to continue to reach a wide global audience.
