Projects Betting on the future

With "Betting on the future", we are creating an ongoing networking format where exciting people from our networks and beyond can meet and discuss current topics together.

We are in contact with exciting and pressing topics every day - be it in campaign development, organizational consulting or website design. And we also receive impulses and questions in our private lives every day: What's next? To what extent is the topic relevant for me or our organization? What will happen to it in the future?

We would like to take a closer look and focus on one topic of the future per event and explore it with you.

Started together with the KOOPERATIVE BERLIN, we have now taken over the bet-on-the-future format due to capacity and are continuing on our own. Thanks to KOOPERATIVE for the time we spent together!

WADZ #1, May 26, 2021

"Loud and quiet voices: How will online events become interactive & equal in the future?"

Forest fires, volcanic eruptions and, last but not least, the countless flood disasters, including in Germany. The climate is striking back. And although the facts speak for themselves and we have known about their relevance for years, the effects are being felt particularly keenly right now. It is therefore clear that we need to act urgently! But how do we tell the facts so that they reach society? What kind of tone do campaigns, reports or actions need to be used to draw attention to this? What climate stories have been told so far? And will we continue to rely on future or catastrophe narratives in future, for example, or do we need other levers to highlight the urgency? Together as a group, we want to be inspired from theory to practice, how we have talked about the climate so far and how we need to discuss it in the future, which ideas will be in demand, or what perhaps needs to be strengthened so that climate communication becomes even more effective.

WADZ #2, September 28, 2021

"Motives and narratives: How can we tell climate facts in the future?"

Digital meetings, workshops and events are part of everyday working life and open up a virtual space in which people can work together despite the distance. However, not all participants always feel equally comfortable and seen/heard. Because we all know them, the loud ones who feel like they are the lone entertainers, while the quiet ones are barely seen online. So we ask ourselves: how can digital spaces be designed more fairly in the future so that loud and quiet people are heard? How do introversion and extraversion translate into the virtual world and what do we need to bear in mind? Together with you, we want to work through what ingredients a digital workshop - where everyone feels comfortable - needs.

"Reach and impact: How can we reach young target groups?"

We are inviting partners and future cooperation partners as well as interested parties with whom we would like to exchange ideas and work together on other great projects. The focus of the event is on how target groups (14 - 18 years) can be analyzed, understood, appropriately addressed and sustainably reached. We will tell you about our experiences from various projects, there will be an input on the topic of media use from Marie Thomas (Editorial Director Social Media AUF KLO) and we invite representatives of the target group to tell us about their needs and how they feel about media use.

Expert input: Marie Thomas

WADZ #4, June 29, 2022

"The power of design and genuine participation: how does fundraising work in a time of change?"

Let's assume we live in a world in which "production conditions are social and transparent, cycles circulate and nature presents itself through climate and biodiversity. When employees become co-entrepreneurs and donors become co-actors - and society shapes all of this according to its own needs." This is the vision of the so-called sense economy, which is also driving organizations into a new role. New things grow, old things fall apart, good things are preserved. Through genuine participation, everyone shapes change together and either meets for the first time or in a completely new way.

Expert input:
Ricarda Raths von Leuchtenburg
She is considered a visionary strategist in change fundraising, works as an author, lecturer and speaker and shares her more than 20 years of experience in many organizations, including WWF Germany and Charityworld. She also volunteers for projects run by well-known personalities, such as Operndorf Afrika and nuruWoman.

WADZ #5, May 23, 2023

"Images of the future - a workout for the imagination!"

When it comes to our future, it is noticeable that inspiring contributions are usually missing, whether on television, in newspapers and magazines or at political events. Either the arguments are abstract and technical, for example about emission curves, CO2 prices or technological innovations as a panacea. Or dystopian images are created of the consequences of the climate crisis and the extinction of species. This stirs up just as much fear as the narratives of the other side, which warn of high heating costs or economic disadvantages for Germany. But the message could just as well be: We will live better! But can we even imagine that? Do we perhaps lack the imagination?

Expert input: Lino Zeddies
