From primary school to the UN, we’re all humans in a climate crisis, says Jen. It addresses our reptilian brain. Colonialism, capitalism, all of the -isms sever our relationshoos. How do we proceed without being maladapted? Fundamentalism? Nihilism? No: activism. Know where the joy is. Go. #FACT2026

And now it’s time to wrap up #FACT2026. Kate: we need to stop learning the wrong lessons. Learn from those who failed before us. We’re losing more people from the arts than joining. We have no tolerance for what’s unnecessary. Make it better. We’re exhausted. Which is why we need to come together.

Kate is making a huge lot of sense!
Boards need to be brave to unlearn, takes energy but exciting trigger knowing that current models don't work and we don't need to follow current governance practices

We’ve got more flexibility to explore governance practices than we think, says Kate. A lot of the ageing models we use are actually optional. Sustainability is ouch and burnout is real. The high-profile governance failures are more and more frequent and entirely avoidable. Embrace change. #FACT2026

Are we addressing those already engaged with climate change? How can we reach naysayers who are not involved in the arts?
Something I've been thinking lots about, my current audience research is finding other, more pressing, issues are top of mind for visitors (at this point in time)
