The collective challenges we face today require a real systemic transition towards sustainability, which includes deep changes to the ways we inhabit, move, work, produce and consume. It also requires a deep rethinking of our relationship with the planet and our fellow travellers, animals, plants and ecosystems. Despite initial efforts and investment towards that transition, we have not been able to mitigate climate change and are now likely to overshoot the 1.5oC initially envisaged, causing immense upheaval to the planet’s natural systems and to own own systems of existence. Facing this great societal shift requires collective visioning to which all members of society can contribute. Visioning is a collective exercise that enables governments to communicate challenges and aspirations, making citiens the co-designers of their futures.
