Workshop: Community Critique: the Futures of Infrastructure

We invite curious community members to come examine the social, political, technological, environmental and values-driven foundations of the infrastructures of the Futures, imagined by a workgroup from diverse disciplines and backgrounds with the probing question of “How will we manufacture and maintain digital, hard, soft, and green infrastructures in Southern Sweden in 2050?” 

In this workshop, you’ll get to explore multiple futures of manufacturing and infrastructure and provide critical feedback on possible futures as well as imagine various trajectories on issues that matter the most for you within this topic.

Our Futures are plural! We welcome folks with education- employment- and lived-experience and expertise to join this community workshop. You could be a UX researcher, an interaction designer, a health practitioner, a systems engineer, an urban planner, a community organiser, a human rights activist, a psychologist, a communications professional or other!

Coffee will be served at 8:30 and we’ll start promptly at 9:00. Participation is free of charge but seats are limited, so sign up in advance!
