INTAC professors have initiated various programs that engage participants in thinking about sustainability issues, climate change and how artists and designers can use their skills to catalyse change through creating awareness. Dr Juha Suonpää at Tampere University of Applied Sciences has been a leader in this, running a series of Visual Catalyst Workshops at INTAC partner universities in cooperation with the local INTAC professors. Peter Sramek, Giselle Mira-Diaz and Charisse Fung from OCADU have facilitated Sustainability Jams in 2022 and 2023 which brought students from many universities together for 2-3 week sessions.
