The New Weather Institute is a co-operative think-tank, created to accelerate our rapid transition to a fairer economy capable of thriving within planetary boundaries. We find, design and advocate ways of working and living that are more humane, sustainable and effective at bringing about the change we need.
Our associates create and manage projects that involve debate, thinking, trend-spotting, community, arts and culture. They can be found:
- Organising debates and seminars on how to think and do things differently to make rapid transition possible.
- Publishing books and pamphlets about a future that works to make it more imaginable and achievable.
- Creating cultural events that speak across sectors and in creative ways to generate hopeful action.
- Talking to local government about using scarce resources more democratically and creatively for fair and planet-friendly economic transition.
- Learning the lessons of history and applying them for successful, contemporary rapid economic and cultural change.
- Bringing attention to what works by looking at places where a fairer and more ecological economy is already active.
- Working with communities to discover what creates resilience, and about the sort of environment, colours and patterns that give them identity.
- Talking to businesses and services about re-imagining how to better include employees and users.
- Bringing together organisations and people with experience of doing things more creatively and effectively.
- Helping organisations re-discover the lost arts of using the judgment, honesty and loyalty of staff and customers.
