Dreams of the Future

We know words have the power to change the world, from Martin Luther King Jr’s “I Have a Dream” speech to Greta Thunberg’s impassioned address to the United Nations Climate Action Summit.

Inspired by the fusion of activism and oration, Sydney Writers’ Festival and Vivid Sydney have gathered poets, songwriters, authors and journalists to share their messages of change.

Join writers Sisonke Msimang and Torrey Peters, changemaker Ziggy Ramo and climate justice advocate Anjali Sharma to envision a better and more hopeful future for Australia and the world.
