Summary/Abstract: The article is a result of cooperation of the academician and the practitioner, both dealing with development of cultural staff and culture management. The aim is to create ecoverve in the culture sector and research on it, understood as practical activities in the face of the climate-ecological crisis. The paper outlines the history of sustainable development, diag-noses the severity of the crisis and presents international community attempts of managing it, also in Poland. The theoretical part ends with considering the meaning of „sustainable development” and its links with culture. The empirical part exemplifies ecoverve in culture, basing on an autoethnographic study of creating two current publications on „greening” of the sector, deepened by a free interview with their author, as well as signalizes ecoverve in museums. The summary is replaced with a manifesto emphasizing the cardinal role of making culture management, in all its senses, both sustainable and sustainabilizing.
