Join the Human Impacts Institute for a powerful session at the Creative Climate Forum: Fast Responses, Slow Revolutions - Climate Week NYC Edition. Explore the FREE, daylong Forum: humanimpactsinstitute.org/creativeclimateforum2025
The session begins with a live performance by Grammy-nominated violinist Curtis Stewart & double-bassist Louis Levitt, & Indigenous Advocate & poet for liberation, Somah Haaland, followed by a dynamic panel exploring urgent, creative strategies to respond to climate & social crises.
In these opening remarks, we set the tone for a bold & forward-thinking conversation about the future. Daring to Dream: Are We Ready to Build Our Future? invites us to reflect on where we stand today-socially, environmentally, & morally-and challenges us to consider whether we are prepared to shape the world we envision. This introduction explores the power of imagination as a catalyst for change, the responsibility that comes with innovation, & the urgency of collective action. It asks not just what kind of future we want, but what kind of future we are willing to build-and whether we have the courage, clarity, & collaboration to begin now.
