2024: Climate change Fiction and its Potential for Transformation

This webinar series is co-organised by GTAGlobal Tapestry of Alternatives and Kalpavriksh and explores the Climate change fiction topic. It has come to the fore in recent times as an offshoot of science/speculative fiction, as a way of coming to terms with the reality of global warming and climate change and the likely repercussions for vulnerable species and communities most likely to be affected in the near future. As extrapolations from current trends, such imaginative responses have offered a significant critique of techno-science and the dominant development paradigm and opened out conceptual alternatives and pathways to transformation.

2024: More than Human: Creative Expressions

This webinar series is co-organised by GTA and Kalpavriksh, creative expressions featuring the more-than-human; people connecting to other species and the rest of nature in spiritual, artistic, and visceral ways. This series will be focusing primarily on the voices from the global south. Many such expressions in the global north are already well known and have plenty of space for exposure. Through this series, we would like to decenter that exploration and see how writers, artists, researchers, activists are exploring these dimensions from a decolonial, indigenous, and justice perspective. This series hopes that we can collectively unravel tools for modern times that can help us rekindle our relationship with the rest of nature in meaningful ways.
