DESIGN – DEVELOP – TRANSFORM Brussels and Antwerp, June 15-17

Call for papers and other contributions

The centre of expertise Applied Futures Research – Open Time of the Erasmus University College in Brussels and M HKA (Museum for Contemporary Art Antwerp) are collaborating on an exceptional three day conference linked to the 2017 summer exhibition ‘A Temporary Futures Institute’.

We will host academic and professional futurists from the global North and South as well as artists and designers, professionals from development (cooperation), (public) policy, business (management) and civil society. DDT sets the scene for connecting images of the futures, futures orientations and experiences from these different fields of practice.

We are now inviting contributions on how futures approaches are applied in the wild, including:

• the diversity of approaches to futures and their theoretical bases
• futures methods, projects, programmes and related images of the future from your practice
• what artists and futurists make of the futures
• practical futures perspectives in developing contexts, in business, policy and civil society
