<p>How can we change this? How can we, as my colleague Ouassima has described so beautifully, become <a href="https://superrr.net/2024/05/21/Warum-wir-flie%C3%9Fend-Zuk%C3%BCnfte-sprechen-sollten.html" >literate in the futuring practice</a>, learn to speak futures fluently? How can we move from scarcity to abundance? As a <a href="https://superrr.net/2024/04/29/Walking-the-talk.html">feminist practice</a>, but also as a momentum that enables change and space for new visions and scopes of action?!</p>

<p>Together with Futures Probes and 15 people from 13 civil society organizations, we are setting out to test and establish futures literacy as a process and (civil) societal practice. “Futures Literacy for Civil Society” is our pilot program to strengthen the futures muscle.

And how can we, as civil society actors translate these visions into concrete measures and action opportunities that help us to strategically work towards desirable futures?

<p>As a learning journey, we document our engagement with the critical theories and methods from the futures thinking repertoire, which we will translate into developing a feminist methodology. We are (perhaps) megalomaniacs and believe that knowledge can and must be produced and transferred equitably. We aspire to think in terms of entanglements and dare to attempt to bring decolonial, feminist and thus critical interventions into the world. What exactly can this look like within this framework?</p>
