Monika Bielskyte is a futures researcher and designer currently based in South Africa by way of Lithuania. She conveys to Brett and Rob her vision for a radically inclusive and more hopeful future. As Monika’s frames it, her Protopian concept of the future presents a distinct alternative to the utopian -vs- dystopian binary that prevails in science fiction and popular culture. Monika draws on the Bantu-origin concept of Ubuntu to characterize her approach to future scenario planning, and she relates it to a wide range of current issues through the lens of equality, fairness and empathy.
