In 2024, the Adelaide Festival will run for a full year in South Australiaand it's going to do something about climate change.

Mashable reports on the "unprecedented cultural initiative" announced by the state's deputy premier and minister for arts: Create4 Adelaide, a yearlong project in which primary, secondary, and tertiary students there will design artwork that will be presented at the 2024 festival.

South Australia's Commissioner for Children and Young People, Susan Close, says the project will "encourage young people to develop their creative skills and engage with local climate change priorities both in person and onlineresulting in digital and physical exhibitions."

Students will be asked to vote on their top priorities for climate action in an online survey; the final three will be announced in March.

The project will run in schools, where teachers will have access to resources to support students as they work on their artwork.

"Apart from the more obvious concerns like bushfires, floods, drought, and endangered species, they identified issues around wasteful consumerism and a widening communication gap between parents and children on these matters," says Close.

"Now let's do something about it."
