There are some movements involving various institutions, such as NGOs, companies, landowners, etc., working in this direction. One of them was awarded last year at a UN conference, alongside other initiatives from other countries.
My comment didn't come out as I expected. I was referring to what goth was when it began back in the 80's, when it was just a musical scene. Of course it became much more than that with time, and today there are many goths who don't even like the music.
I didn't intend to sound gatekeep-ish, just felt that the first comment about goth becoming emo and such could lead to a wrong view as if the scene was only about fashion. I apparently didn't choose the best words though :/
Goth is all this and more! it's music, fashion, lifestyle, mindset... pretty much whatever you need it to be, it's a beautiful scene in my opinion, and I'm very proud to be part of it!
But back in the 80's the style began as a musical scene coming from post-punk, that's what I was referring to ;)
