SECTION 1: ON BOUNDARIES AND A BORDERLESS FUTURE

Immigration policies and border controls continue to dominate headlines and political debates, influencing decision-making, transforming identities, and dividing communities. Rather than fixating on the divisive boundaries between ‘them’ and ‘us’, how do we universalize the migrant experience? How can we imagine the seemingly impossible possibilities otherwise discarded in politics, which could produce new models of citizenship or the dissolution of global borders?

PERFORMANCE: Daniela Ortiz

SECTION 2: FACING CLIMATE REALITIES, REIMAGINING A GREEN FUTURE

This section intersects the local and the planetary, indigenous knowledge and scientific cultures, multispecies and human solidarity. Delving into ecological thought and revealing critical tools for the climate justice movement, speakers will highlight contemporary responses to climate change, extinction of species, and extractivist threats to the environment. How are these threats affecting our understanding of ourselves and our common futures?

SECTION 3: TOWARDS AN INTERSECTIONAL JUSTICE

Due to rising inequity and violence, ideals for equitable and responsive governments are further distanced from present-day mindsets. Speakers will position questions of who is privileged, who gets excluded, and who has power at the intersection of gender, race and class. What are some of the crucial aspects of queer, feminist, anti-racist, and post-colonial perspectives from which practitioners have developed an emancipatory politics for our times?

SECTION 4: RESISTING DISPLACEMENT AND VIOLENCE

From Miami to Istanbul, from Buenos Aires to Bucharest, forms of aggressive gentrification have become widespread, oftentimes signaling the rapacious influence of cultural trends. Every city offers a different story, and there is much to be gleaned from the injustices felt and the struggles taking place at different breaths and rhythms. What new forms of engagement do artists, activists and other agents integrate into their environments?
