What if climate resilience started with culture?

ICLEI USA and ICLEI Africa are helping cities explore that question through the Race to Resilience Culture (RTRC) cohort, a global network of communities using art, storytelling, and tradition to drive climate action.

From public art festivals in Olympia, WA, to shade equity projects in Phoenix, AZ, and cultural memory work in cities across Africa, participating communities are showing that resilience can be local, creative, and deeply rooted in identity.
