Thank you in advance. ​Summary Below is a brief reminder of the key parts of the talk, links to further resources and links shared in the Zoom chat during the talk. We started by inviting you to imagine what kind of world you want. We looked at what kind of world we have now and then explored how possible it is to bridge the gap between the two. We looked at how ordinary people can make change and showed how this has been done in the past. Takeaway Messages This is an emergency! There is a desirable world to be won - but the promise of that world currently hangs in the balance. We can all contribute to making it a reality.
