“Culturalizing sustainability” Viewpoint published in Nature Sustainability including ktopias “playful encounters on sustainable action”

“Policy-makers and scientists dominate high-level sustainability debates but any decision that follows has consequences for ordinary people in their local communities and environments. We asked experts to reflect on the importance of embracing a culturally informed, bottom-up approach to the sustainability discourse and action.”
I am grateful and honored to have taken part in the collective co‑creation of this viewpoint and weaving “Solid Science for Serious Fun”, our Storybilities, Playabilities and Sustainabilities into the multi-perspective viewpoint.
