## Summary

The Flow project has brought together women artists from around the world for an album centred on water, aiming to connect people emotionally with the climate crisis. Its members hope that music and other forms of art can help move climate debate beyond statistics and raise the profile of culture at Cop31 in Turkey.

The album features Charlotte Church, Maxine Peake and Nadine Shah, and is co-produced by Grammy winner Jennifer Decilveo. Church’s song moves from a meditative tribute to water into an expression of grief and anger, while Indigenous teacher Márcia Mura describes how floods, droughts, dams and pollution have changed the Madeira River. Flow will also accompany a documentary about women on the frontlines of the crisis, with Mura stressing the importance of Indigenous people telling their own stories.
