Interdependence Day

Interdependence Day describes a series of projects and events designed to provoke new thinking about how we should act in our interconnected world through collaborations between researchers, publics, artists and performers, NGO's and the media.

Through seminars, publications, direct public engagement, for example, the Interdependence Day public events, reaching diverse publics through broadcast and webcast, the project aims to develop key ideas for social learning and environmental change. The 2006 public event was supported by the BBC and Open Broadcast Unit, and the Open University. Funding for public events and research project 2007 is coming from DEFRA's climate challenge fund (£30K).
