We're RADAR, a decentralised global collective of people thinking about and building better futures.

Together, we've rigorously explored, collectively imagined, and publicly launched four visions of better futures we believe in. We've run public idea jams and education events for hundreds of people around the world. We've build an ideas platform that was recently awarded a grant of over $150k. And we've published a Field Guide to the Future that invites any and everyone to see themselves as active participants in what lies ahead.

We've done all of this because, for too long, the future has seemed to belong to the few and the powerful. We  choose to believe there's a different truth — simple and radical — hidden in plain sight: The future belongs to those who think about it. Which is to say, the future isn’t reserved for the powerful or the privileged; it’s shaped by any and every one of us who dares to imagine it differently. It's the most accessible unit of change there is.

So think of LoveFest as yet another opportunity to imagine differently and join us as we explore and enact our latest future, A Future in Love, in this global, virtual gathering.
