DAY 4
The Sensuality of Uncertainty
8th October 2026
Day’s presentation
Is Another World Possible?
This presentation will explore the factors, both individual and collective, that can foster the emergence of alternative systems and ways of life.
ROUND TABLE 9
The world is experiencing unprecedented ecological and social crises characterized by species extinctions, open-ended wars, genocides, growing inequalities, and a weakening of community ties. These intrinsically linked crises are degrading ecosystems, depleting resources, and worsening already unjust social, economic, and ecological relations. It is imperative, therefore, to rethink our dominant retributive, property-based notions of justice, which neglect the environmental dimensions of social justice. Since all dimensions of justice are inseparable, this roundtable aims to explore other concepts and forms of justice and the systems that could enable them.

ROUND TABLE 10
This session will highlight the essential, yet generally undervalued, contributions of the African diaspora to the dynamics of (re)imagining and shaping alternative futures for the continent. We will explore how the roles, perspectives, and engagement of the African diaspora can act as a crucial lever for navigating and overcoming the multiple crises facing Africa. The aim is to foster in-depth reflection on how the diaspora’s human, social, and economic capital can be better mobilized and integrated into our efforts for social transformation and ecological transition.

ROUND TABLE 11
The Economy will be Feminist— Feminist Alternatives for a More Humane and Just Economy
This roundtable aims to explore a fundamental transformation of our economic systems driven by the bold assertion that the new economy will be feminist. Far from being a mere rhetorical stance, this perspective invites a critical examination of current economic structures and the emergence of alternatives that foster greater humanity and increased social justice. We will examine how feminist principles translate into concrete practices, ranging from the design of more equitable public policies to the promotion of business models where prosperity is not the preserve of a few but a shared reality, and where respect for the dignity of every person and the preservation of the planet are at the heart of all economic decisions.
