Futures are Multiple—Thinking and Acting for Climate Justice

This research engages with people and practices across a variety of disciplines and places in India. 'Futures are multiple' continues ideas, concepts and notions developed in Architecture is Climate, a project that foreground processes, ethics and actions that are directly and productively dealing with climate breakdown through different forms of organisation, governance and collaboration. It situates spatial concerns in a broad field beyond the technocratic, solutionist approaches that dominate current architectural approaches to climate.

'Futures are multiple' engages with and talks to individuals, practices, institutions and organisations that address climate breakdown and its spatial implications (though not always through a primarily spatial lens). The project is interested in approaches that address the more systemic and structural issues of our time (e.g. enclosures, ongoing privatisation, earth crisis, fragmentation of knowledge, etc.) as well as responses to these complex issues.
