Latest News: The No Limits to Hope Conference – join online!...
UNESCO-MOST BRIDGES is proud to support this event as a partner with the World Academy of Art and Science, and WEEC. From 4-6 November 2026, global leaders, academics and practitioners will come together at the National Bank of Romania with the Club of Rome and The Club of Rome - Romanian Chapter - ARCoR to discuss bridging knowledge and action, reimagining education and building a regenerative future.
The opening line of the “A Time of Great Consequence” manifesto cuts straight to the core: "We are living in a time of great consequence. We act as if we are not." Published jointly by the BRIDGES Coalition within UNESCO's MOST programme; Arizona State University’s Julie Ann Wrigley Global Futures Laboratory; and The Club of Rome; this manifesto calls for the synthesis of diverse knowledge systems to drive collective action for the common good of people and planet. It establishes a foundational vision for integrated governance—aligning policy with social justice, sustainability, and planetary belonging.
Research in the Environmental Humanities recognises the need for better cooperation and concerted collaboration between the sciences and the humanities when it comes to understanding, assessing and ameliorating current and emerging environmental crises. This research identifies critical root causes, underlines the role of imaginaries, norms and values, and mobilises knowledge on the import of language and narrative as well as artistic expression in order to assemble more diverse and robust understandings of what it means to live in a world of polycrisis, and to develop novel solutions or pathways for safeguarding or restoring planetary co-habitability.
Last week, the UNESCO-MOST BRIDGES Flagship Hub, directed by Joni Adamson, took its place as a proud seed-funder of a performance of Anthropocene in Paris during the UNESCO MOST Social Transformations Week.
An exciting update from our UK Hub - During the recent UNESCO MOST Transformations Week in Paris, the UNESCO-MOST BRIDGES UK Hub—based at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David (UWTSD) contributed to the BRIDGES Workshops Day on 30 September, which brought together diverse participants to translate theoretical frameworks into tangible, real-world action. The workshops created vital spaces for knowledge exchange. Their core aim was to generate practical insights to directly feed into the newly approved BRIDGES Policy Toolkit, which will be stress-tested worldwide through UNESCO field schools. By creating the space for participants to learn directly from one another, the sessions generated actionable insights designed to align academic research, frontline practice, and inclusive policy development.
