On Saturday 15 October, Ecopolis – the annual rendezvous for those committed to a sustainable future – alights in AB. Expect walks, lectures, discussions between writers, academics and citizens, workshops, literature and documentaries.
Social, ecological and economic crises force us to think about a radically different way of living. Can unheard stories help us with that? Can activism as a form of love take us further than doomsday thinking? Ecopolis brings stories that depict an inclusive and sustainable future for this new world. With the likes of Dalilla Hermans, Bayo Akomolafe, Jumana Emil Abboud, Mihnea Tănăsescu, Olave Nduwanje, Eric Corijn, Apolline Vranken, Jérémy Désir-Weber, Enkidu Khaled en Joachim Robbrecht.
