After COVID-19: imagining a safe and just future for all
11/11/20 • 31 min
Right now, the very idea of imagining the future might feel strange when the world is changing in ways we barely even understand. In this episode, we ask, is a safe and just future for all still possible? And what will it take to imagine and enact these kinds of futures?
Host Andrew Merrie is joined by two people who spend much of their time thinking about this: Garry Peterson from the Stockholm Resilience Centre and Laura Pereira from the Copernicus Institute of Sustainable Development at Utrecht University.
