Greenstage

Greenstage is an EU co-funded environmental sustainability project that brings together the best practices, examples and toolboxes for reducing the ecological footprint created within the performing arts sector.
The project places a strong emphasis on transforming from a linear take-make-waste economy to a circular one and aims to encourage and disseminate environmentally friendly practices in the European performing arts sector that can be transferred to other cultural and creative sectors.

We seek to enable the performing arts sector in collaboration with municipalities to implement environmental sustainability promptly and effectively in their practices, with a particular emphasis on circular stage design, in response to pressing environmental challenges.
