Sound of change: Music as a tool for social impact

Sound of change: Music as a tool for social impact

Music has long played a role in shaping culture and connecting communities. In this session, we look at how we can use our platforms to address social issues, support mental health, and contribute to ecological and community initiatives.

What responsibilities come with visibility and influence? How can music careers be built around values as well as talent? This panel will highlight concrete examples of how music can drive awareness and action, and consider the challenges and opportunities of working at the intersection of creativity, community, and entrepreneurship.
