Art History Link-Up Environmental Policy
At Art History Link-Up, we are committed to promoting sustainable practices that protect and preserve the environment for future generations. As an organization dedicated to education and cultural enrichment, we recognize our responsibility to minimize our environmental impact and lead by example in the community we serve.
Our Commitments:
Reducing Carbon Footprint
We aim to minimize our energy consumption and reduce greenhouse gas emissions through efficient use of resources in our offices and at all events. This includes promoting remote working and virtual meetings to cut down on travel-related emissions.
Waste Reduction
We are committed to reducing waste by promoting digital resources and minimizing the use of printed materials where possible. Recycling and responsible disposal of materials will be encouraged at all levels of our operations.
Sustainable Procurement
We will prioritize the purchase of environmentally friendly products, from office supplies to event materials, ensuring they are sustainably sourced and ethically produced.
Education and Awareness
We will work to educate our students, staff, and partners on the importance of environmental sustainability and encourage them to adopt eco-friendly practices in their daily lives and professional activities.
Energy and Resource Efficiency
We will strive to use energy and water responsibly in our office spaces and at our events, encouraging conservation and adopting renewable energy sources where feasible.
Supporting Green Initiatives
We are dedicated to supporting environmental initiatives within the wider arts and education community, collaborating with partners who share our commitment to sustainability.
By embedding environmental consciousness into our organization’s culture, we hope to contribute positively to a more sustainable future while inspiring others to do the same.
We believe art history should be for everyone, however fewer than 1% of state supported secondary schools offer Art History A Level. As a result, there is a lack of diversity in the arts sector and an increasing skills shortage. We are the only charity offering formal Art History teaching to school-aged students from all backgrounds. Your financial support will ensure that everyone has an opportunity to study art history: together we can transform the future of the arts.
