What Could Go Right?

Designing Our Ideal Future

to Emerge from Continual Crises to a Thriving World.

What Could Go Right is an invitation to ditch cynical narratives about the future. Instead of focusing on either worst-case scenarios or Pollyanna optimism, we can envision our ideal world and empower ourselves with practical approaches to build it.
