This event brings together Icelandic and global voices from the Global Artivism movement and the Wellbeing Economy Alliance (WEAll) to celebrate how art intersects with - and drives - economic system change. The audience will hear from Kumi Naidoo, former leader of both Greenpeace International and Amnesty International. He is now co-founder of the Global Artivism Initiative and President of the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty. He will be joined onstage by Icelandic artists and changemakers: together they will connect Icelandic artivism to the global movement.
