Dusts Institute brings together artists, environmental activists, scientists, and architects to raise awareness about environmental issues and promote sustainable practices. By providing a space for artists and interdisciplinary researchers to showcase their work and engage with the public on environmental topics, the aim of Dusts Institute is to use art as a means of communication to connect with a wider audience and inspire people to take action to address environmental issues. It includes interactive installations on public space, learning workshops, performing arts, and exhibitions that are used to communicate a wide range of environmental challenges, from the human impact upon the environment and diversity of nature to the environmental degradation. Dusts Institute also serves as a space for learning, where artists and researchers work together to develop educational programs and initiatives that promote environmental literacy and inspire individuals to take an active role in protecting the planet.
