Futures under threat

Futures under threat - Workshop

This workshop introduces "Futures Lab" as an innovative participatory method that combines social psychology, futures studies, and utopian studies to explore how people imagine, negotiate, and contest the futures. Focusing on the energy transition, we will explore the moral values and identities guiding what futures are seen as desirable, acceptable, or resistible. Join us on February 13th, 2026 (14h00-16h00), FLUP - Meeting Room II (2nd floor)
