Future Thinking Together
A solidarity event series
Peer support and learning workshops for creatives to share resources, collaborate and build collective power
These sessions are dedicated to opening up access to resources and space in precarious times and building new forms of mutual support and solidarity. They are designed to be welcoming, open access, reflective and practical - to build power and share resources amongst creatives - both for freelancers and organisations working on social and environmental justice issues. We particularly welcome Global Majority and working class led groups and freelancers.
