About this talk
We know the importance of data and evidence in tackling global crises like climate change, but is it stories rather than statistics that will drive change? Our panel discuss how art, literature and performance can be used to connect and inspire people, and how this feeds into activism. This event is part of the LSE Festival: How to save the planet running from Monday 15 to Saturday 20 June 2026. There will be book sales before or after this event in MAR.1.10.
