18. + 19. Juni
Summer Festival "Futures of Mobility"
How mobile are we? That’s what we’ll be asking ourselves, and especially you, at our summer festival on the future of mobility. Together with you, we want to bring utopias to the streets, observe nature along the way, get to know our city from completely new angles, play quizzes, have a picnic and discover the many new things at Futurium. Look forward to a weekend full of mobility!
We spend the summer in Lisbon, study in Brazil, visit family in Vietnam and work mobile from Tel Aviv. In theory, at least. After all, lots of factors determine how freely and autonomously we can decide on a new place to live or even on a trip. Our own history, family and background play a major role in how we move around in the world – as do our financial means, health, relationships and education.
Nature is our travelling companion. Whether we’ve picked them up locally or from further away, pathogens, plants and animal species are constantly travelling with us. Whether we’re talking about planes or cars, bicycles or trains, our means of transport, and the routes we take, have an impact on other living creatures and on our ecosystems.
During our Mobility Festival, we’ll be collecting perspectives on the mobility of people, things and other living beings. Together, we’ll be taking a close look at the imbalances with which our society has to cope and opening our eyes to ideas for the future. We want to be creative and utopian while doing so ... and keeping on the move!
