dc.description.abstract | Present times are marked by structural crises and social alternatives appear increasingly implausible. Planetary urbanisation intertwines global society and ecosystems amidst social, ecological and rational crises accounting for unprecedented challenges. Discourses shift from reform versus revolution to ecological transition and resilience approaches within a scenario of turmoil. A workshop taking place in Goias City, Brazil, employed 'utopias' as lens and delved into counter-hegemonic urban ecological relationships. Concepts, such as Neoliberal contradictions, Decolonial approaches, Coexistence, Ethics of Care, Mobility of frontiers and Co-poiesis of Nature were assessed and led to three dialectical utopias — Queer planet, Matriarchal Society and Afrofuturism. Design thinking was used to envision alternative futures by integrating these concepts to utopian experiments addressing contemporary contradictions and societal trends. Keywords: ecological transition; utopian imagination; design-thinking | |
