The Bigger Picture is a creative series of free events from nef (the new economics foundation) in response to current crises, featuring a large-scale, public event taking place in the dramatic post-industrial setting of the Bargehouse on London’s South Bank on Saturday 24 October 2009, as part of an international day of climate action coordinated by 350.org.

The aim of the festival is to inspire and unite people across borders and boundaries. It brings together thinkers, artists, activists, poets and musicians for a day of learning, making, doing, celebrating and debating.  As well as grappling with the daunting array of social, economic, political and environmental challenges we face, the festival will provide visitors with a glimpse of how an new economic system, which puts people and the planet first, could look and how to start the great transition to get there.

The Bigger Picture includes:

The Human Powered Home

Tales of how it turned out right

The Ministry of Trying to do something about it

The Bigger Picnic

Lessons on how to break your carbon chains with our skills workshops

Film screenings and Climate walk
