The
The Aktionsnetzwerk Nachhaltigkeit in Kultur und Medien (ANKM) is a central, cross-sectoral contact point dedicated to the topic of operational ecology in the field of culture and media. Funded by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and Media (BKM), the ANKM aims to connect pioneers and interested actors, make existing experiences accessible, and initiate and support future collaborations and pilot projects.
The main mission of the ANKM is to support the cultural sector in transitioning to sustainable and climate-friendly production methods and lifestyles. It is emphasized that sustainability does not have to mean renunciation, but rather can create new opportunities and experiences that include society as a whole. The ANKM sees the cultural sector as a societal driving force and multiplier for climate protection and sustainability[4].
The ANKM works closely with numerous partners, including the Stiftung Humboldt Forum, the Stiftung Genshagen, the Green Touring Network, the Filmförderungsanstalt, and many other cultural institutions, research facilities, and companies. The project sponsor Delta1 gGmbH plays a central role in initiating and operating networks such as the Green Music Initiative and the Green Touring Network[4].
The Aktionsnetzwerk Nachhaltigkeit in Kultur und Medien is thus a central actor in the sustainable transformation of the cultural sector in Germany, making a significant contribution to global sustainability goals through networking, knowledge transfer, and innovative projects.
