Date of Activity: November 2021
Location: Glasgow
Age Range: 14-25

The Phone Call to the World Interactive Exhibition narrated the journey of the overall project – traversing each of the intersectional localities and lenses that the participating organisations brought. The work contained bridged the auditory and the visual, the interactive and the participatory, forever acting as testimony: asserting how young people encounter the world they live in and how they demand climate justice. It acted as a space for witnessing and transition, where the magnitude of global extinction was met at a local and urgent level.

The exhibition took place from 2-13 November, during COP26, at CCA Glasgow. You can find more documentation of the display on the Phone Call to the World website:

“Overall, the exhibition welcomed 526 visitors across the two weeks it was open and 162 people for the evening performances, coming from a plethora of backgrounds and locations across the world. There was a really encouraging range of engagement with the exhibition – those that took time to absorb the stories personally and others that wanted to start conversation with members of the team.”
