BillerudKorsnäs: ”Art is a vital part of a sustainable future”

At OPENART, we strongly believe that when we come together, we can make brave and wise decisions. OPENART is built on collaborations with driving spirits from the business sector, the municipality, and civil society, who contribute with time, materials, and financial resources.
OPENART 2022 was made possible thanks to the support from our many partners. In the coming months, we would like to highlight some of these here on We Don’t Have Time, by letting them share their perspective on sustainability, as well as their involvement in the collaboration with OPENART.
First up is BillerudKorsnäs, a leading provider of packaging materials and solutions that challenge conventional packaging for a sustainable future.

With art, we have a tool which everyone can use to express themselves and declare an opinion, and where background, ethnicity, age, and gender do not matter. Art is inclusive, and an important platform for democracy, and this makes it a vital part of the sustainable future that we at BillerudKorsnäs are on a mission to help co-create.
We therefore view Open Art as an important initiative, which we not only want to support, but also be a part of.
Open Art vitalizes democracy and brings joy to the entire Örebro region and its visitors. With the help of Open Art, we can have more people discover our amazing region and everything it has to offer, also beyond art.
This year, Open Art has had a sustainability theme, and this is particularly dear to our heart. By replacing non-degradable fossil-based products, with fiber-based ones, we can meet the needs of the future with sustainable products.
But it is in collaboration with other actors, and with joint forces, that we become truly powerful and able to create a sustainable future. Therefore, collaboration with other actors such as OpenArt and We Don’t Have Time is incredibly important.

    Quite an eye-opening experience, children are the leaders of tomorrow and shaping their mindsets in matters concerning climate change is a rite to be passed down for generations
