A World With

Ever dread your morning commute? If so, you are not alone - for the millions of us around the world that rely on public transport, commutes are often unenjoyable parts of our days. But, what if we could change our chaotic commutes/daily journeys so instead of feeling stressed, anxious and lonely, we instead felt inspired and in community with others and ultimately more joyful?In this episode, community leader and writer Naomi Wharton brings daily transport soundscapes into our lives as a way to “ease everyday hustle culture in big cities and to encourage communities around the world to slow down and reconnect with humans, nature and the environment around them.”Credits:A World With is produced by Futures In Draft.Executive Producer: Chris MitchellCo-Executive Producers: Emily Bromfield and Anjali RamachandranCreative Producer: Isabella PearceLead Producer: Carla FloresScriptwriter: Naomi WhartonVoiceover Artist for season trailers: Sara Mitchell Hosted on Acast.

Imagine a world where those who hold the knowledge and tools to solutions are given the resources and political power to make them. In this episode, Costa Rica based environmental activist Elizabeth Couse, identifies one of the biggest obstacles facing our current climate movement - saviourism - and explores what happens when we remove saviours all together.In this world, we are shown the potential of what could be when a farmer in Costa Rica who has been stewarding the land for generations is treated as an expert and an Indigenous water guardian isn’t a beneficiary of conservation, but its author - a world with true solidarity as our guiding principle.Credits:A World With is produced by Futures In Draft.Executive Producer: Chris MitchellCo-Executive Producers: Emily Bromfield and Anjali RamachandranCreative Producer: Isabella PearceLead Producer: Carla FloresScriptwriter: Elizabeth CouseArtwork and Branding: Darren Garrett and Driss ChaouiVoiceover Artist for season trailers: Sara Mitchell Hosted on Acast.

What if the monopoly of birth didn’t dictate what access we had to rights, safety, healthcare and our quality of life?Director of the Decolonial Centre, Mohammed Elnaiem, invites us on an exploration of a world with one nation. Mohammed offers a powerful case for border abolition, charting the potential of a world where arbitrary lines on the map, competition, and othering are dismantled. Alongside this, Mohammed explains the history of a world before colonialism and formalised lines of division and encourages us to expand our imagination and consciousness around what could be possible when we lean into collectivity, openness and a sense of shared unity. For more information, please visit: www.futuresindraft.com.CreditsA World With is produced by Futures In Draft and Storythings.Executive Producer: Chris MitchellCo-Executive Producers: Emily Bromfield and Anjali RamachandranCreative Producers: Maya Minhas and Isabella PearceCo-Creative Producer: Sara BafoArtwork and Branding: Darren Garrett, Driss Chaoui and Naomi GenneryScriptwriters: Andrew Sage, Sam Sivapragasam (LION), Samara Almonte, Sara Bafo, Mohammed Elnaiem (The Decolonial Centre) and Thanu YakupitiyageVoiceover Artist for series trailers: Sara Mitchell Hosted on Acast.
