In these online breakout groups happening as part of the online programme of the IETM Satellite Girona 2021, we will come together to explore the renewed space of encounter and think about the actions, ideas and changes needed for “tomorrow”.

Remembering the transformative experience of the past year, the workshop will trigger self-reflection and an individual/collective projection into the future. Exploring concepts and perspectives about loss, gain, intimacy, distance, sense and feeling of community, time & space, the participants will reflect on how the pandemic experience has shaped and is shaping (my/our) today and (my/our) tomorrow.

In the world we are living, imagining the future is not just a speculative exercise, but a concrete process to provoke and inspire change in our immediate reality.

In order to accommodate all time zones, we are hosting two identical online breakout groups on that day:
