Since 2022, the tagline "This Hot Summer Is One of the Coolest of the Rest of Our Lives" has been trending and continues to be a reality - highlighting the urgency of the climate crisis. Despite rising temperatures, melting glaciers, and a global youth movement mobilizing to save the planet, we continue to face challenges in aligning governments, institutions, and private corporations towards life-affirming systems.

Few have explored pushing the boundaries with Decidim to advance a climate justice agenda or reimagining computational infrastructures in ways that better align with the natural environment. In this session, our goal is to begin imagining, speculating, and making real the possibility of a Decidim case or community that engages with a participatory climate justice movement especially with and for youth and marginalised communities.

During this session, we will:

  • Explore how communities have utilized open-source technology for climate justice.

  • Use creative methods like zine-making, speculative design, and legislative theatre to incorporate ecosystems in how we do democracy and develop proposals

  • Discuss how the Decidim community can engage with critical climate concepts and frameworks as a thematic discussion, a techno material question, and a creative methodology for designing new technologies.

In collaboration with the INSPIRE project and Asamblea Cívica por el Clima (https://asambleacivicaporelclima.org/(External link))

Facilitators: Enric Senabre, Nadia Nadesan and Platoniq team

Join us as we envision a future where Decidim plays a pivotal role in the fight for climate justice.
