Education for sustainable development and ecological thinking is the focus of Let’s Change the Future. Children of Today, Citizens of Tomorrow, a program for Family Card members consisting of six workshops which will take place between October 2021 and May 2022.

Sustainability is a very topical and urgent discussion for the education of younger generations. Given the collaboration that the Peggy Guggenheim Collection shares with ASVIS since 2018, the Italian Alliance for Sustainable Development, the museum considers it not only a challenge but also a priority. Let’s Change the Future. Children of Today, Citizens of Tomorrow is supported by Il Gufo, the Italian clothing company for children now in its fourth consecutive year supporting the museum and these initiatives.

Aimed at both children and their parents, the workshops will address the topic from a multidisciplinary point of view by introducing the approach to active citizenship, understood as the commitment and contribution of each individual in favor of the well-being of the community. Participants will follow an itinerary aimed at stimulating awareness of our daily life as part of a society to be built in an increasingly attentive, inclusive and peaceful way.

The workshops will address urgent and important issues for our citizens of tomorrow, such as the creation of shared urban spaces, environmental protection, and active participation in the community.
