Summary

The UNESCO-BRIDGES Flagship Signature project of Humanities Labs brings together students, scholars, and practitioners to explore interdisciplinary solutions to global sustainability challenges. Through research, storytelling, and engagement, these labs encourage participants to think beyond conventional narratives and reimagine more just and inclusive futures. Covering topics such as ocean storytelling, planetary citizenship, energy justice, and gendered approaches to peace and security, the labs emphasize diverse perspectives, collaborative inquiry, and actionable change.
