Welcome to some of the most essential conversations built for Generation Now.
- How can a holistic mindset improve the quality of life for all without harming our big,, beautiful planet that sustains all life?
- How can open collaboration and cooperation help us to protect biodiversity? How do we establish smarter cities and communities that coexist with the natural world?
- It’s not all doom and gloom: How can AI help us prevent crises? Imagine a communications system, built from the ground up, helping communities…. do this and that? How can the slow fashion movement reduce extractive practices which destroy biodiversity? Building to last: How do we transform our products from “Built-in-obsolescence” to built to last?
- What are some of the advancements in health and medicine enabling quality of life?
- How can we build bridges between communities for more inclusive and tolerant societies? Doing so requires an improvement in knowledge sharing.
- How can we improve education and media systems from taking us backwards, to empowering an active citizenry? How can understanding the interdependence of all life bring us closer to our potential in balance with the natural world?
- Prevention is the best medicine: How can we transform our health systems from “Death Economies” into “Health and Well-being?
- Good needs better distribution: How can improvements in our food and energy systems enable a healthier coexistence?
- Wars no more: How can going from transnationally controlled corporations to localized, community owned, produced and distributed services and systems dismantle the war economies and eliminate the struggle for natural resources?
We’re not waiting for the future. We are creating it together.
