When art meets commitment
The symposium “Art & Engagement” is an event organized by the cultural association Thanks for Nothing, which took place at the Louvre in Paris on May 3rd. The objective of this 6th edition is to highlight different international personalities from the artistic, associative, academic, activist and scientific world, around the theme of life.
A unique opportunity to reflect on how art can have a positive impact on the world around us, but also to share experiences and perspectives on the environmental crisis that affects our planet and to discuss solutions.
Between artists and experts, personalities such as Camille Etienne, activist for social and climate justice, author and actor within the collective “Before the storm”, Galitt Kenan, Director of the Jane Goodall Institute France and Cyril Dion, writer, director, poet and French environmental activist, have intervened.
They highlighted various forms of action and art in the service of ecological awareness.

Several young people shared their experiences in creating artistic projects committed to environmental protection.
These speakers highlighted the challenges they face in their struggle and the possible solutions to overcome these challenges.
