The next edition of the World Hope Forum explores a multidisciplinary approach to crafting a pluriversal future beyond cultural misappropriation. How can law, living heritage, intimacy with nature and different ways of knowing and being be woven into our value systems and creative lives? How can we truly participate in change-making and heal collectively through cultural sustainability? Cultural sustainability relates to Indigenous people, ethnic groups and local communities nurturing, sustaining and protecting their traditional cultural expressions and associated knowledge systems. Interdependence, interconnectedness, kin and care are multi-dimensional values of a culturally sustainable worldview. In this edition, we will hear from speakers who manifest these values in transformational and inspirational ways that are changing systems, minds and hearts. Personal stories that impact deep, warping the way to systemic change through cultural sustainability.
