​Do you wonder what the world will look like in the future?

​​​This is the second part of this workshop we conducted last month. In this second part, we will reflect on the relevant future trends regarding Climate Change and the socio-techno-economic interplay we identified in the first part.

​​​Using the Future Thinking Method we will then develop possible future scenarios that should motivate to act. We will use artistic forms to faciliate this, so get ready to move about a little bit and think out of the box.

​​Important: If you didn't manage to attend the first part of this workshop, don't worry! We will reflect again on the outputs of the first part so we are all on the same page.
