Black Sustainability, Inc. proudly announces the upcoming 9th Annual Black Sustainability Summit, set to take place from October 11-13, 2024. As the premier assembly of sustainability practitioners of African descent, the annual Black Sustainability Summit continues its legacy of providing a dynamic platform that carries on our tradition of offering a stimulating forum for community-driven solutions, learning, and cooperation. In addition to member presentations and participatory impact funding, the zero-waste summit is excited to produce an innovative mixed-media art exhibit on our inaugural State of Black Sustainability Report to communicate data through a somatic experience.

Join us for an immersive, interactive exhibit that showcases the results of the State of Black Sustainability Report (SBSR) without turning a page. The exhibit includes various art mediums reflective of pervasive environmental social issues and community-driven scalable solutions, vegan treats, and mocktails that invigorate health and wellness. Expect to explore works on Afrofuturism, sustainable fashion, water, waste, agriculture, eco-housing and more to ensure accessibility, plain language translations of the climate impacts to those often left out of the conversations.

This will be an engaging, educational experience for the entire family.

Day 1 (Oct. 11): Full day of virtual presentations focused on exchanging best practices to environmental challenges from experts around the globe.

Day 2 (Oct. 12): Join us for the creative release of the State of Black Sustainability Report as an immersive art exhibit open to the public.
