  • Youth Lab: Green Shoots

    YouthLab: Green Shoots is a collaborative and experimental project developed as part of the Centre for Chinese Contemporary Art’s YouthLab programme. The project ran from December 2020 to March 2021 and has grown out of an earlier project, Greening the City, that was suspended in March 2020 as a result of the Covid-19 outbreak. It explored how we can use collaborative action to enact change in our local neighbourhood, moving towards more sustainable practices and raising awareness of environmental issue.
