The

Polycrisis

In 2050, there will be approximately 9.7 billion people, of which 70% shall be in cities. For all of humanity to live within the resources of our planet, the impact of each human being in 2050 will have to be approximately 57% less than that of the average person living today. This has vast developmental implications for prosperous and impoverished nations and communities. Implications that need enlightened action.

How We FLOW

Turning Principles into Action

Develop and enhance urban policy for countries, cities, and mayors, particularly with a view to the built environment and its intersection with nature.

Curate city-to-city networks as communities of practice using AI and other urban planning tools to model spatial economic opportunities and forecast threat.

Create and program Planet Smart Economic zones, to strengthen and create value chains, for cities and countries, corporates, and communities

We design tangible futures, and produce thought leadership by working on real projects in transdisciplinary teams, committed to circularity and the FORESEE Framework.

Planet Smart Economic Zones

FLOW proposes that African nations evolve beyond “Climate Smart” toward “Planet Smart” Economic Tax Zones as a bold strategy to drive green growth. These zones – essentially next-generation special economic zones (SEZs) with sustainability at their core – aim to boost exports of spefic low-carbon goods, create jobs (especially for youth), and strengthen local value chains.
