Art Dialogue is a small non-profit organization based in the Czech Republic working closely with the United Nations Safe Planet Campaign to raise public awareness about hazardous chemicals and wastes. Since 2010, Art Dialogue has facilitated nine Arts and Outreach Initiatives for Safe Planet in Mexico, Canada, the USA and at the 5th Meeting of the Stockholm Convention’s Conference of the Parties in Geneva, Switzerland. It is our belief that culture –be it visual media, performing arts, music, etc.- can open the mind and soul of the public to complex issues in a way that other forms of communication cannot. In our experience, harnessing the arts as a vehicle for education is a non-threatening approach that can be persuasive by its unique ability to deeply affect the observer with beauty, intelligence, humour and raw content. This approach has proven particularly successful with youth.
