Utopian Envisioning Lab

This full-day event bridges historical research with contemporary civic action, exploring how the history of utopias can serve as a practical tool to collaboratively design sustainable futures.

Please register beforehand here.

Bringing together academics, students, and local civil society groups, the workshop features three dynamic panels focusing on past utopian movements, present-day community initiatives, and the co-creation of desirable futures.

Moving beyond traditional academic discussion, the event uses participatory methodologies and live graphic recording to generate actionable insights.

Funded by the University of Leeds, CHIA, and supported by the Xunta de Galicia, this workshop promises to be a vibrant space for collaborative imagination.

Organisers: Prof Richard Cleminson and Luis Toledo Machado.
