ADE Green 2017
Meaningful Solutions for the future
18. October 2017 / 10 pm – 6 am
Amsterdam Dance Event / DeLaMar Theater

After ADE Green’s recent announcement about ‘‘Art For Social Change’ being this year’s main theme, we received a few questions such as ‚what does social change have to do with ecology and wasn’t this conference about sustainability?‘ Yes. And it still is. But if you really want to make a change, you need people who are willing to fight to make what they believe in happen. For this year’s conference, ADE Green looked for individuals who inspire others by showing how incredible artists and thinkers from all over the world dedicate their lives to a bigger cause in order to ignite and strengthen sustainability, innovation  and social change. We believe in the potential of individuals and their dreams and ideals, regardless of whether you are a superstar, a passionate activist or just taking care of business.

At ADE Green- the pioneering conference on sustainability, innovation and social change we will feature great speakers, panels and workshops. Throughout the day, we will try to inspire and answer questions linked with with one (or all) of our themes.
