Futures Literacy Theatre Lab for Refugees

“In my country the future is embedded in the present. Whatever you do today creates the future” (participant from Sierra Leone).

What do unaccompanied asylum seeking minors think about the future? How they approach and use the future? How does their cultural identity and their past traumatic experiences reflect on their anticipatory assumptions? What can we learn from them?

A Futures Literacy Theatre Lab was organized by UNESCO Chair on Futures Research (FORTH/PRAXI Network) and Iliaktida on the Greek island of Lesvos on 13 & 14 July, 2019.
