ECF ‘The Drama of Climate Change and a Low-carbon Future’

Funded by

ecf      ecc

 

Supported by the Environment and Conservation Fund (ECF), the two-year ECF ‘The Drama of Climate Change and a Low-carbon Future’ (the ECF project) aimed to educate the public, especially the younger generation, to embrace the importance of making green choices through themed exhibitions, ‘theatre-in-education’, a social media campaign and other experiential learning activities.

The objectives of this ECF project were:

  • to educate the public, especially primary school students, on the subjects of climate change and a low-carbon lifestyle, with an emphasis on low-carbon diets; and
  • to encourage and inspire them to influence their peers and family to ‘go green’, creating a low-carbon, sustainable future;

which were achieved by the following five components:

  1. Drama Tour

    Drama Tour School Tour 4   Drama Tour School Tour 5

     

    An educational drama in the theme of ‘Combating Climate Change: Towards a Low-carbon Future’ was produced by a professional theatre company with input from the scientific team of the Jockey Club Museum of Climate Change. Crafted with actor-audience interactions, the play appealed to young students and inspired them to adopt a more environmentally sustainable lifestyle to combat climate change. Premiered in September 2019, the play has been toured to 34 primary schools as at December 2019, reaching an audience of more than 9,700.

  2. ‘The Green Eaters’

    The ECF project began with a fun yet, informative ‘The Green Eaters’ social media campaign, followed by the ‘Eating Greener’ exhibition (July to September 2019) at the Jockey Museum of Climate Change, to encourage the general public to increase their intake of plant-based meals, thereby reducing the carbon footprint of the carbon-heavy meat industry. The exhibition attracted close to 10,000 visitors.

  3. Learn and Practise

    Learn and Practise Low carbon Diet Workshop 2   Learn and Practise Low carbon Living Workshop 3

     

    To complement and strengthen the primary school students’ knowledge gained from the drama, a series of ‘Learn and Practise’ activities are being carried out for the participating schools. The activities aim to convey a message to the students that they have the ability to change their own behaviour for the good of the planet and also influence their peers and family members to do the same.

  4. GreeXperience@CUHK

    GreeXperienceCUHK Guided Green Tour 1   GreeXperienceCUHK Guided Green Tour 5

     

    To reinforce their understanding of climate change and low-carbon living, the students of the participating primary schools would acquire a special, first-hand green experience, or the ‘GreeXperience’, through environmental activities organized by the Jockey Club Museum of Climate Change. These activities include guided tours of the Museum and guided green tours on The Chinese University of Hong Kong campus.

  5. ‘Living Greener’ Virtual Exhibition

    ‘Living Greener’ virtual exhibition explores the relationship between everyday life and the global climate issues of today. It offers practical things we can do to incorporate sustainability into our daily life.

ecf ecc   Australian Museum Logo Ki Culture Logo SDSN Hong Kong Logo

 

ECF Mobilizing Community Climate Action by Future Museum Curators is an 18-month school-based community project supported by the Environment and Conservation Fund (ECF).  The project capitalizes on the MoCC’s experience in climate outreach and advocacy and represents a unique model of experiential and problem-based learning through curating an exhibition that inspires community pro-climate actions.  Student participants (our ‘Future Curators’) will have the opportunity to showcase their works at the MoCC and will reach a larger audience worldwide through our various global partners.

Objectives

  • To empower young people as a force for positive change by equipping them with the necessary knowledge and skills in curating and communicating exhibits, so that they can make a meaningful contribution to climate action; and
  • To encourage the community to respond to the messages conveyed in these exhibits and to take appropriate climate action.

Project Components

1. 

Training Future Curators

 

The core component of this project is a comprehensive training programme designed to provide young people with the necessary knowledge and skills to communicate climate change and sustainable development through technology-aided exhibitions.

 

Training Scope

  • Knowledge of climate change and UN Sustainable Development Goals
  • Curation and science communication skills
  • Innovation know-how – AR technology
 

Learning Outcome

  • Be able to identify and propose solutions to climate change and its impact
  • Have basic knowledge of AR technology and its application in exhibitions
  • Be able to curate their own exhibitions
  • Be able to showcase their exhibits to a wider international audience through the MoCC’s global partners

 

Join us to help your students...

Enhance knowledge of climate change, science communication skills and innovative know-how

Through a comprehensive training programme which includes sharing sessions, workshops and field trips, the programme participants (our ‘Future Curators’) will identify problems of climate change and explore the connections between climate change and the United Nations’ (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).  The training will be provided in multiple modules covering climate change knowledge, basic curation skills and the application of AR technology.

Experience the work of a curator

The programme will expose the participants to various aspects of a curator’s work, from content research, through description drafting, to exhibit design and development.  Under the MoCC’s guidance, the participants will work with their teammates to curate their own exhibitions to be staged at their schools and in a virtual gallery.  Selected curating teams will co-curate with the museum team a year-end themed exhibition to be staged at the MoCC.
