Dear Future – Dresden Sustainability Festival

Our world is constantly changing and it is primarily in our hands what the future will look like. What is our orientation in times of growing uncertainty, where are we looking? What kind of world do we want to live in and how can we shape the change into a sustainable society? Which obstacles must be overcome and which developments must be promoted? Where are sustainable lifestyles already being tested and how can we participate in global change in our everyday lives, among our friends and in our working environment? In about 50 mostly free lectures, workshops, roundtable discussions or films, on city tours and in the theater, the program of the “Dear Future – Dresden Sustainability Festival” explores contours of a social transformation towards sustainability.
