In June 2021 Taliesin, in partnership with the Dhaka Lit Fest in Bangladesh, hosted Everything Change, an online series exploring how creativity and adaptive thinking might help overcome the challenges of the climate and ecological crises. The events, all with a global south/global north perspective, focused on seven key areas: Money, Food, Water, Energy, Justice, Story and Change itself.
A writers’ lab of 3 Welsh and 3 Bangladeshi writers immersed themselves in the conversations of Everything Change. Join us now a year later and six months after COP 26, to hear to what they learnt, discuss their responses and watch what they wrote. Chaired by Swansea University Prof in Creativity Owen Sheers and Director of Dhaka Lit Fest Sadaf Saaz.
