Commissioned article
I was honoured to be asked by AdaptNSW to write about life-centred design (LCD) in climate adaptation, for the Purpose Conference.
Life-centred design has mainly been focused on reducing humanity’s impact to reduce wicked problems like climate change.
This article initiates a life-centred approach to climate adaptation—how do we prepare, respond, and recover from climate events in ways that also support the natural systems we’re connected to, and how might these responses generate more sustainable and regenerative business opportunities?
Commissioned short stories interpreting research findings from exploring sustainable futures of food
Transformative Times, , the new research platform helping organisations drive new futures, hired me to translate their research findings into short stories to make sharing their research more engaging.
Transformative Times‘ current focus is the future of food, and they asked me to interpret the signals of change they uncovered into short science fiction stories to further explore these new possibilities.
The first story is “The Meal”, which interprets the first signal, “What we eat can define our status / our status can define what we can eat”, and it explores a future where influencers motivate citizens to improve their Planetary Efficiency rating by reducing the impact of their eating indulgences.
And the stories are only 2-3 minutes reading time—perfect for our modern attention deficits!Â
