From the story 'Creature' – We Are the Possible – Land of Fire: 12 Stories for 12 Days of COP29 -
We Are the Possible – The Land of Fire: 12 Stories for 12 Days of COP29 brings 12 powerful stories to Baku and the conference to be shared with world leaders and delegates, both in print, digitally, and through stunning recordings thanks to British Institute for Modern Music University partners.
Through an expanded Schools Across the Ocean programme, vibrant cardboard cartoons and their powerful messages, co-created by children at schools in the UK, UAE, and Azerbaijan, will be showcased in the COP29 UK Pavilion in the Blue Zone, at Extreme Hangout in the Green Zone at COP, and other fora.
The project team once again brings cutting-edge sustainable theatre in the form of Bright Light Burning adaptation weaving stories from the new anthology developed by The Theatre of Others in collaboration with Dunya School at Khazar University in Azerbaijan.
With funding from the Met Office, the British Council, the British Embassy in Baku through their GREAT Fund, and the Arts and Humanities Research Council, We Are the Possible also owes its thanks to the invaluable contributions from Khazar University in Baku, BIMM University, and the Emirates Literature Foundation.
