Power to the people? Yes indeed! Active citizenship, community spirit, commons - it is all the rage. People are ready for change and want to have a voice in the things that are important to them. The big challenges of our time call for big solutions and we want to be part of that. More and more, we are getting that done together, off the beaten track, in innovative organisational forms, or on our own initiative - no longer on the sidelines, but in the middle of the playing field. From making your own dream house together to testing our collective ability to share - meet the doers and thinkers who are taking back society to move the world forward.

What would the world look like if we lived in harmony with the other organisms around us? Step into the Symbiocene! A new era in which nature doesn’t revolve solely around human life, but where we become partners in coexistence. Cities would transform into nature reserves, full of eco-friendly buildings constructed from biobased materials, ensuring equal rights for all living inhabitants. What would we wear? What would we eat? What would we invent? Join us as we explore the dawn of an epoch in which Earth and Humanity heal their toxic ties. To live happily ever after.

No endless debates or thick stacks of paperwork—just useful tips, articles, and tools to help you start conversations and find common ground.

I'm working. I make. I care. I'm green. I'm connecting. I'm dreaming. What does it take for a livable city? Does that come naturally? Or do you have to keep working on it all the time? And (with) who? And how? During this mini-symposium, led by Job Cohen and Devika Partiman, we will discuss how to create connections in Amsterdam. Towards a New Amsterdam Alliance.
