Key Area 3: Activism, Advocacy & Social Justice in the Arts

Resources for creative activism and healing justice organizing that advance fair labor practices, inclusivity, and policies supporting marginalized voices—such as arts as social infrastructure, trust-based philanthropy, and circular leadership models—while actively promoting data equity, digital rights, and addressing technological colonialism.
How does it work?
Through partnerships, capacity-building workshops, and community-driven projects, we empower artists and organizations with tools to advocate for fair practices, influence policy, and create inclusive, equitable environments that drive systemic change both within and beyond the arts sector. By centering transparency, community empowerment, and continuous learning, we work to ensure that our advocacy supports the rights of marginalized groups and challenges the structural systems that maintain inequity.
