Arrangementerne er en del af projektet ‘Music and Music Festivals as Change Drivers’. Projektets omdrejningspunkt at engagere danske og internationale musikfestivaler og livearrangører i samtaler om potentialet og ansvaret ved at bruge musik, musikere og festivalens unikke fællesskabsrum som forandringsdrivere inden for temaer som fx bæredygtighed, social inklusion og mental sundhed. Projektet afvikles t.o.m. 2025 i Danmark, Tyskland, Storbritannien og USA. Du kan evt. læse lidt mere her.
