Julie Forchhammer

Co-founder Klimakultur

Country: Norway

Cohort: CCL Scandinavia 2022

“Living in Norway, a rich fossil fuel producing country with no intentions of reducing emissions, CCL for me means to empower, connect and hopefully inspire the culture sector to change our systems, to include climate justice and to make our government accountable for their lack of empathy towards nature, people and the rest of the world.”

Julie is the co-founder of the non-profit Klimakultur which guides the Norwegian culture sector on how to reduce emissions and implement the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s) in their daily practices. She lives in the mountains in Vang in Valdres with the national park Jotunheimen next door. Previous jobs includes: festival manager Vinjerock / environmental manager Øyafestivalen / advisor and board member The Rainforest Foundation Norway.
