Together with our audience, Luke and I focus on how we can educate for existential threats: issues like the climate crisis, biosecurity threats, and the prospect of devastating future wars.

Each of these, or a combination of any of them, could trigger a societal breakdown. So I want to know how our education systems might respond and how we can equip young people with the knowledge, capabilities and qualities that give them hope of confronting such challenges?
