“Where to land after the pandemic? A self-description experience”

Collective Writing workshop led by Soheil Hajmirbaba | Global Climate Action Symposium | Online

This workshop will be limited to up to 12 active participants (first come, first serve) and 20 observers

The French philosopher Bruno Latour offers a tool for discernment in the form of eight concrete questions to ask: “Where to land after the pandemic?”.

The exercise includes making a list of activities of which you feel deprived by the current crisis, which gives you the feeling of a violation of your essential conditions of subsistence. We suggest you take time to read these eight questions and begin to answer. Participants can customize this questionnaire.

We invite a maximum of 12 people to participate in the workshop on October 7, who accept to share their observations and to be seen virtually by an audience. They have to prepare themselves to answer the eight questions below and bring their answers to the workshop.

Please, find below the link of the registration to be an active participant or to observe the workshop
