Dec.2019 - Disaster Displacement at COP25
Art met policy at the 25th United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP 25)
The PDD partnered with the COAL (Coalition for Art and Sustainable Development) Prize and DISPLACEMENT: Uncertain Journeys to bring the work of artists from around the world on the issue of displacement related to disasters and the adverse effects of climate change to the UN COP25. Spread over three days, the work of the ten finalists of the 2019 COAL Prize were showcased at COP25 to initiate exchanges on the topic through artwork. The winner of the Prize engaged with policymakers and other conference participants in conversation at the official side-event of the Warsaw International Mechanism (WIM) Task Force on Displacement (TFD) and at the award ceremony at the French Pavilion. The events took place at IFEMA Feria de Madrid, Spain, in December 2019.
