Possitopia Norwich was a programme for activation on the Earth crisis, to open imaginations to possible futures of the City, of its wider bioregion and the Earth systems we all depend upon. IT HAS BEEN SUPERSEDED BY MY WORK WITH THE GROUP ‘REIMAGINE NORWICH’ SO I HAVE SHUT THE SITE AND MOVED THE CONTENT TO THESE NOTION PAGES

YOU CAN LEARN MORE ABOUT REIMAGINE NORWICH HERE https://reimaginenorwich.org.uk/

• This was a programme under the umbrella of Climate Museum UK. This is a group of creative people across the UK, with a cluster of us in Norfolk, working to help people make sense of environmental issues in their places.
• We aimed to create a visitable space in Norwich, working with Norwich Eco Hub and Norwich Unity Hub at Carrow House. (This is now a plan to create an Imaginarium for Reimagine Norwich).
• Being Possitopian means opening to all possibilities, not being stuck in either despairing Dystopia or wishful Utopia, facing the dire state of the planet while generating active hope.
• It offers opportunities for learning, conversation and planning for Norwich to become a regenerative City, tapping and reflecting its cultural heritage and its essence.
