July: Received Visions -- 2040 No Chronic Disease

Fri, Jul 11

|

Zoom + Miro

What is it like to take in an aspirational future vision that you did not help to create? Let's test this out on ourselves by reviewing and reflecting on the video created by Sohail Inayatullah and collaborators, "What would a world without chronic diseases be like in 2040?"

About the event

It is powerful to create and share visions of a better future; however, how well do those visions translate beyond the workshops that created them? How does it feel to receive an aspirational, hopeful vision from another group? We can try this out ourselves by "receiving" the vision created by global health experts in a participatory session led by futurist Sohail Inatyatullah in 2021.


The video is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lhT1saeUF8&t=2s


[Optional] Read more about the project in this academic paper here: Meditation, Geomedicine, and Anticipatory Cities: Emerging Issues and Visions of Futures without Non Communicable Diseases


Watch the video before the session and then join some fellow creative imagination folks to reflect on the key messages, critique the story, and backcast from that vision to imagine what it would take for the vision to come to life.
