human works design - building meaningful futures #16 - Trends 2018 Special!
Humanist Future Trends 2020
While the future seems to come closer every day – mainly due to the increasing technological advancements – in 2017, the first signs of the downsides of the systemic entanglement of technology in business and society started to surface. On the other hand, more and more initiatives globally involving a more human to human (H2H) approach towards creating happier lives in society and business are on the rise.
To create more awareness around the human innovation topic, we are launching a new article and interview series, called “Humanist Future Trends 2020”, a collection of humanist observations on how we’re going to survive/thrive, co-create and co-exist with technological progress.
As a starter, read human works design’s Humanist Future Trends 2020.
Next, we are inviting the people who inspire us to give their vision and ideas on how to enable high quality advancement for a humanist future.
This week we start with Peter Vander Auwera, co-founder of Innotribe. Peter is an independent thinker, creator, sense-maker and architect/designer/curator of memorable experiences.
Let us know what you think about our humanist future trends and inform us about that person you admire you’d like us to include next.
We want to thank you all, dear readers, for your support in this transformative year. It’s been an amazing year! We wish you all a most pleasant holiday season with family and friends and we wish you a sparkling 2018!
With love and gratitude,
Canay and Rudy.
