布林克!是一个由创造性思想家、创新者和艺术家组成的团体,为以气候破坏问题为中心的讨论、教育和行动搭建了一个平台。
我们希望通过绿化、艺术和科学来支持我们城市的净零污染和再生愿景,展示创新,并通过讲故事来促进社区参与;倾听新的声音;讲述新的故事。
We used a council-owned site, earmarked for Belfast Stories, a high-profile visitor centre celebrating narratives of the city to be built from 2026. ‘A Growing Story’ explored, in this derelict inner-city space, what can happen when we understand our city centre differently, make it grow and play, experiment and educate there. This heritage project was at the heart of Brink!’s plan.
Alongside this we hosted a series of citizen events, workshops, festivals and conferences to ask What Should This City Do? in the face of Climate Change.
Outputs from this project, and other citizen research and events that we have run, have led to working with partners to develop the Belfast sustainable food strategy, The Belfast Way, to help form a city food resilience strategy.
We were selected to be the education and public engagement partners for the Co-Centre for Climate, Biodiversity & Water.
We partnered on all island projects across flax, fibres and peatlands, marrying culture, heritage and citizen engagement to provide opportunities for citizens to take ownership of change together.
