Co-Create

Engage in co-research to question and innovate in the way we inhabit the world as a society

Our society depends on social organisations and infrastructure that affect the Earth's habitability and cannot be maintained indefinitely. What should we do with this heavy heritage on which our lives rely depend, but destroys that of others and threatens our future ones? How can we change without attacking it head-on, fleeing or neglecting this legacy? What path lies between the untenable ‘business as usual’ and a sudden and unfair rupture? What transition lies between maintaining the status quo and outright rejection? How can these transitions be achieved democratically?
