  • Not Goodbye, But See You Later: Three Takeaways from Three Years of Futures Hub Work

    Not Goodbye, But See You Later: Three Takeaways from Three Years of Futures Hub Work
    2026/06/08

    After three years of conversations across five continents, this episode marks a turning point for the Futures Hub podcast.

    In this episode, we step back to explore the evolution of Futures Hub from an academic research question to a global podcast and experimental platform for futures thinking, co-creation, and community engagement.

    Three key takeaways are shared, learned through building Futures Hub as a living experiment:

    • Why starting with personal reflection strengthens strategic alignment
    • How experimentation helps embed futures thinking in organizations and communities
    • Why designing for active involvement leads to deeper, more meaningful participation

    The episode also shares details from the Futures Room installation - a participatory foresight installation that brought these ideas to life.

    Along the way, Futures Hub Founder and Host Mia reflects on the real tensions behind this work and shares why this moment calls for a pause for Futures Hub, not an ending.

    Whether you've been along for the whole journey or are just discovering Futures Hub, this is an open invitation to keep imagining, keep co-creating, and keep working toward better futures together.

  • The Future Is About Belonging: Navigating Uncertain Futures with amalia deloney of point A studio

    The Future Is About Belonging: Navigating Uncertain Futures with amalia deloney of point A studio
    2026/04/13

    In this episode of the Futures Hub podcast, amalia deloney of point A studio explores how communities can move beyond abstract futures thinking and into meaningful, grounded action.

    Drawing on over two decades of experience across social justice, philanthropy, and community-based work, amalia shares a powerful perspective: people already carry visions of the future within them - the role of futures work is to create the conditions for those visions to surface and connect.

    amalia explores tensions shaping futures work today, including the pull between long-term vision and short-term constraints like funding cycles and strategic planning, and the gap between global challenges and local, community level action.

    amalia also shares practical tools from her working, including:

    • a Civic Compass to help groups navigate uncertainty without rigid roadmaps
    • a Futures of Belonging card deck, inspired by conversations about identity, place and community

    This conversation invites a deeper question: What happens when we treat futures work - not as a technical exercise - but as a collective, relational practice rooted in care?

    Whether you're working in foresight, community engagement, policy, or simply curious about what comes next, this episode offers a thoughtful and practical lens on how we can imagine and build futures together.

    VR & Ancestral Intelligence with KeepersXR's Lorna Okeng and Emmanuel Rukundo
    2026/03/02
    In this episode of Futures Hub, we are joined by Lorna Okeng and Emmanuel Rukundo - the creative minds behind Keepers XR and the VR film Keepers of the Forest: The Batwa Legacy. Filmed in Uganda, Keepers of the Forest features the Batwa people - ancestral guardians of the Bwindi and Virunga mountain ranges, which is home to half of the world's mountain gorillas. Once evicted from their forest, the Batwa are now working to preserve their culture, identity, and environmental knowledge. Using virtual reality, Lorna and Emmanuel preserve knowledge systems and feature African futurist perspectives. During the episode, we explore:

    • How emergent tech like VR can preserve cultural knowledge

    • The importance of ancient ecological wisdom for climate resilience

    • Co-creation with Indigenous communities

    • AI (that is: "Ancestral intelligence") as a futures and design methodology

    • Emotional reactions to immersive storytelling, including empowering youth through creative technology; and

    • The landscape of African digital creativity and XR innovation

    This conversation bridges past, present, and future, showing how intangible heritage, oral traditions, and technology can create better futures. If you're passionate about foresight, XR, climate justice, innovation, or storytelling, this episode is a must-listen for you. Tune in to be inspired and imagine what becomes possible when the world honours its early storytellers and future protectors.
