BFI Sustainable Screen – Peer Sharing session

A cinema screen with green foliage on the big screen.
When Tuesday, 25 November | 14:00–15:00
Where Online

In this session we focus on ethical and sustainable sponsorships and banking, with inspiration from arts venue Exeter Phoenix, and Tipping Point UK (creators of the Bank Better movement).

speakers:

  • Tipping Point is a worker-led cooperative supporting grassroots groups with resources, training and tools on the intersection of the climate justice, social justice, economic justice, migrant & racial justice, and Palestinian liberation movements. The Fossil Finance team works via the Bank Better and Boycott Bloody Insurance campaigns to support grassroots groups in targeting the banking and insurance industries investing, underwriting and profiting from climate chaos, the genocide in Palestine, and the detention and abuse of migrants.
  • Launched in 2021 the Green Phoenix Project is working towards making Exeter Phoenix as sustainable as possible, including adapting our historic building with the introduction of solar panels, LED lighting and secondary glazing, and considering the impact of our people, activities and systems. Within the team Holly is an experienced fundraiser and has secured funding through a range of sources for Exeter Phoenix’s green projects. Gemma is the Green Phoenix Co-ordinator, leading the project’s research and managing the data collection.
