Designing Peace

This issue of Catalyst begins our exploration of the generative impulse at play in the creative professions. This impulse is generating new creative economies and securing human rights. The actions we take now can generate new options for the many-if we care, collaborate and create.

Designing peace will be essential to generating futures. A world at war expends its energy on protecting the boundary of what is. Peace creates a horizon of possibility-a movement toward what might be.

In this issue, we went in search of the peacemakers and shapers and even the peace entrepreneurs. You will meet the cultural curators and creative strategists who are on the leading edge of change.
