Live music <3 Climate
Background
The live music climate roadmap was devised during spring 2023. The roadmap is based on a 2022 survey on Finland’s live music sector’s carbon footprint. The project is administered and coordinated by the Finnish Jazz Federation, and its partners are the members of the network KEMUT (Sustainable music industry toolkit). In addition to the Finnish Jazz Federation, the network includes the Association of Finnish Symphony Orchestras, the Finnish Musicians’ Union, Finland Festivals, LiveFIN, and Music Finland.
The project’s specialist partner is Positive Impact Finland, who have created the roadmap. The project has received funding from the Ministry of Education and Culture (as a part of Jazz Finland’s Carbon Neutral Touring Model project 2022–2023), MES and the partners.
