If we want to reclaim and remain hopeful about the future, we need tools and practices that help us recognize potential within crises and actively shape our own contexts. This workshop invites participants into a collective speculative exercise to envision future literacies that empower us as hopeful designers in the face of current and coming disasters.
But what kind of future awaits us? Governmental strategies, thought leaders, publishers, influencers, academic research, literature, pop culture, and grassroots movements all shape diNerent visions of tomorrow. In this workshop, we will select some of these narratives as
\u201cimperatives\u201d \u2014 starting points for ideating and prototyping literacies (and ways of learning\/cultivating them) that equip us for what lies ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Karin Fink and Andreas Unteidig, co-leads for the MA in Eco-Social Design at HSLU Lucerne, arecollaborating with students from our program. They are currently working on a research project (Xplore ESD1) centered on the question: Whateco-social literacies are vital for design students to navigate today\u2019s complex crisis? One avenue of their inquiry is exploring this question in collaboration with students from diNerent cultural backgrounds through a short, speculative design sprint.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
