Participation in professional Forums
The members of our working group Gu-Zero attend environmental forums and conventions on a regular basis to share experiences, promote the values associated with sustainability, raise awareness among target audiences, and place the Museum at the forefront of eco-friendly organizations in the artistic field.
Below are some of the events we attended in the past few years.
Held in October 2023, the symposium organized by World Art Foundations (WAF) in collaboration with the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao brought together leaders from museums and art foundations to present their environmental sustainability strategies, share best practices, and offer participants insights and solutions to help them begin their own sustainability journeys.
This forum, held in the summer of 2023, brought together creative professionals and leading researchers in Earth system science to present their current work and contribute ideas for potential collaborations that could have a positive impact on our planet.
