Sound the Alarm: Music, climate awareness and citizen action

What if music didn't just raise awareness, but became a true driver of collective action in the face of the ecological crisis? This plenary explores how artists, professionals, and audiences can turn musical emotion into concrete engagement. Through inspiring examples-such as the monthly challenges launched by the No Music On A Dead Planet campaign by Music Declares Emergency in the UK-we'll see how music can mobilize people far beyond the stage.
