What Will Spring be Like?: Report on the future

Wanted: antibodies for the virus in the mind. Faced with pent up anger against racial injustice, glaring social inequalities exposed by the pandemic, growing global strain, the economy falling off a cliff and the crisis of nature that hadn't gone away, history didn't come much bigger than this. Deep global transformations were needed. 'What will Spring be like?' articulates the social investments that were crucial to help ensure proofing against pandemics and the kind of 'spiritual stockpiling' that builds resilient communities. How did we build on what came to the fore as vital to value (economic value, people's lives no matter the colour of their skin, the value of social solidarity and the value we place on the natural world that had given us such a sharp shock?) The moment became a momentum; then a movement.
