The project titled 'Interspecies citizenship' explores what it would mean to include non-human species as citizens within our communities. We aim to challenge the current commodity mindset towards non-human stakeholders in coastal environments by generating a dialogue around them as co-inhabitants.

How to use the speculative design to go beyond the speculation and generated actionable change?

- Speculative Jobs Role Play workshop -

A pop up “job centre” invites participants to imagine, explore, and act out speculative jobs in the context of co-inhabitation. What would it mean to get paid for interspecies care? The role play will take place in an alternative society where biodiversity is the currency. The workshop aims to enable citizens within coastal communities to take action in the age of climate crisis.
