Fondazione Santagata at The Klosters Forum 2026 to discuss about the role of culture in the ecological transition

18 June 2026 – Fondazione Santagata per l’Economia della Cultura joins  The Klosters Forum 2026, the international platform taking place from 17 to 19 June in the Swiss Alps.

The event, designed as a closed-door cross-sector laboratory, gathers a selected community of only eighty global experts, scientists, policymakers, and innovators to foster systemic collaborations in support of the ecological transition. This year’s edition is dedicated to the theme “The Cultural Turn: How to Centre Creative Power for Ecological Change” and explores how creative processes and cultural practices can transform environmental awareness into concrete actions.

In this framework, the foundation shares its expertise in cultural economics applied to the  just transition, bringing the results and tools of the 4C Observatory (Cultural and Creative Carbon Cut) to international attention. The presentation highlights data from the second national survey on Italian cultural organizations, alongside the initial impacts generated on the territory by the TERE pilot programme.

The participation consolidates Fondazione Santagata’s role within major global climate networks, reaffirming culture and imagination as strategic levers to guide ecological change.
