PODCAST "2040 J'Y VAIS!

The “2040, j’y vais” podcast is a place to listen to the sound of the forest growing, rather than the well-documented sound of the tree falling. The podcast takes the microphone to inspiring people who, through their attitude, vision and commitment, are helping to build the French-speaking Switzerland of tomorrow. We give voice to the analyses, projects and ideas that serve this new paradigm of finite growth in a finite world, and that speak of the interdependence of human beings with the rest of the living world.

“2040 j’y vais!” is the podcast for lucid optimists: lucidity, to make a clear and rigorous diagnosis of the current situation, and optimism, to sustain the collective impetus to undertake change.
So…. Welcome to 2040!

The world is a reflection of what we believe.

Today, most of the stories that shape our future are either dystopian or marked by deprivation and austerity. Yet dozens of other stories are possible. It’s up to us to invent them. And hundreds of people in Switzerland are already involved in projects that are defining the contours of a sustainable, liveable society. So why don’t we all start thinking about these possible futures?
