DESCRIPTION:Claudia R. Binder\, Sascha Nick\, Simón Ladino Cano\, Mari
 a Anna Hecher\nTechnology accelerates the direction society is already mov
 ing\, for better or worse. If our systems are misaligned\, innovation can 
 deepen ecological and social crises. What would it take for technology to 
 genuinely support wellbeing and sufficiency within planetary boundaries?\n
 Join us for a 90-minute participatory workshop where we design transition 
 pathways and test them with representative personas. No prior knowledge re
 quired.\n\nFormat\nTransformation cards: Create 20-30 cards (A5\, thick pa
 per) in five categories\, each with a one-sentence description of change +
  one-sentence expected benefits and broader systemic consequences (include
  illustrations if possible):\n\n	Built environment and spatial organizatio
 n\n	Governance and institutions\n	Provisioning systems\, sufficiency\, wel
 lbeing\, and culture\n	Technology (enablers and consumption drivers)\n	Mac
 ro-level conditions\n\nPersonas: Posters with personas based on statistica
 lly identified household lifestyle clusters with specific sufficiency and
