Challenge the notion of technologically predetermined futures presented in science fiction and popular media.

Discover why moving beyond dystopian and utopian binary futurism is crucial for envisioning our collective future. Learn about the importance of informed hope in increasing human agency and active participation in future-making. Understand how this approach can support resilience and solidarity in an age of geopolitical destabilization due to disinformation warfare. Gain insights into the Protopia Futures Design Framework, which prioritizes marginalized cultural perspectives, a life-centric approach, and the value of disability and neurodivergence-informed innovation.
