Elise shares insights gained from using an exhibition carbon calculator, and how the Design Museum are evolving resources and driving connectivity across the sector so that other organisations can also create environmentally-informed, responsible exhibitions. This session is for you if you are interested in:

  • Creating exhibitions that are environmentally-informed and more responsible.
  • Using insights from carbon calculations to inform strategic decision-making.
