Centre for Future Natures

Description

Future Natures uses research, arts and storytelling to explore the politics and ecologies of crisis, enclosure and possibilities for building plural futures in a changed and changing world.

Through stories, arts and research, we aim to delve deeply to explore the complex and evolving relationships between people, technology and our non-human environments.

We ask what they mean, and how they shape possibilities for imagining and enacting plural futures and plural natures through action and struggle in the present.

In the process, we aim to build bridges, activate learning, and amplify voices across diverse histories, spaces and struggles to defend the commons, past and present.

Better futures are not only possible — they already exist in-the-making.

Future Natures involves an international network, an online platform and a research initiative, including diverse communities of researchers, commoners, and commoning-aligned artists, writers, makers and others. We are also involved in a growing series of projects and collaborations.
