Here’s the photo of Futura, the latest mural by Antonio Cotecchia (Kotè), adorning the walls of Aielli (Italy)—a striking visual that captures a young woman, holding the planet in her hand, a powerful metaphor for responsibility, hope, and our shared future 🌏

Despite the need to stay highly focused and the anxiety about protection and adaptability triggered by thoughts of the future, I really enjoyed the Fashion Futuring workshop designed by Clarice Garcia at #MOMus. And I loved spending time with the amazing group of participants!

🌸Happy international Women's day!
Empowerment of #women has been one of the strongest drivers of social evolution over the past century, and we hope that massive shifts in gender stereotypes will occur over the next few decades.

Vorrei racchiudere in un contenitore la reazione dei miei sensi quando ho tra le mani questo incantevole #fiore per riviverla ogni volta che ho bisogno di un po’ di respiro.

Buon 8 marzo a tutte le splendide #donne della mia vita, passate, presenti e future. 🌼

#WeDidItAgain! The 12th #WorldFuturesDay is over, and there is so much to reflect on after 24h of free discussion about the future. One key takeaway is that while we need to be realistic, we also need hope because we have a sort of responsibility not to give up.
See you in 2026!
