The Global Stocktake

The Global Stocktake, first published in October sparked a deluge of headlines, each saturated with a blend of alarmism, pessimism, and foreboding. The story painted across media landscapes veered heavily into the very best of the doom and gloom. However, within the discord of dire predictions, there is a vastly overlooked narrative; that of an invitation to embark on a journey towards a future with promise and potential. This session will look beyond the bleak prognostications, to see if there is an opportunity to explore a brighter future of remarkable transformation awaiting those ready to shape it. Come and join us in evaluating this future built on collective effort between our fabulous interconnected global community.

Habitat for Earth- How to design and build for a regenerative future

The construction industry is a major contributor to the climate and ecological emergency we face, generating 40% of annual global GHG emissions. Therefore, rethinking current norms in construction is an urgent and complex challenge. The way we design, produce, operate, and restore our built environment must be radically altered. Mobilising such changes demands cross-sectoral, cooperative, and creative relationships that harness our collective agency. As such, this panel, a collaboration between The Klosters Forum and Extreme Hangout, brings together an array of different leading experts to discuss and collaborate on new approaches to designing and reimagining a built environment in harmony with, rather than at odds with, nature.
