Building Communal Empathy with Friends of the Earth

Together with Friends of the Earth, we see an imagination and empathy gap – people struggle to imagine how the world might change for the worse, and which alternative futures are still possible.

We are working to create an immersive experience that can be applied in communities to support people in imagining what a ‘healthy environment’ might mean for them, using their creativity to explore possible scenarios, and developing an empathetic response with regard to future generations.
An additional element we are exploring is twinning with a community on the frontline of the climate crisis through our international network, to enable people in the UK to build solidarity with those most immediately affected.
