Closing the Imagination Gap: From “What Is” to “What If?”

Join us for a panel discussion on rethinking how we see, shape, and share climate futures 🌍 ✍️ As the climate crisis accelerates, we’re not just facing a lack of action, we’re facing a failure of imagination. Our ability to build a clean, green, and just future depends on our capacity to envision it. But dominant narratives around climate remain narrow, technical, and often centre around the problems we face rather than the possibilities that solving them can offer. We need stories that move us from what is to what could be. In this panel, we bring together leading voices working across culture, research, and advocacy to explore how imagination can become a driver of transformation. From speculative fiction to strategic scenario building, knowledge from the global majority to social and narrative change, our panelists will explore the role of imagination in shifting real-world values, behaviours, and systems. Together, we’ll explore how narratives rooted in justice, possibility, and plural worldviews can close the gap between knowledge and action, between the world we fear and the one we can create. The time to reimagine the future is now.
