Globaïa brings our world to life. Through art, science and narratives, we inspire a ‘big picture’ understanding of our home planet.
A public benefit organization, Globaïa illuminates critical global issues and reveals pathways for action.
A deep ethic of planetary stewardship guides our cartographic and media productions.
Our work is mainly focused on the exploration of Four Thematic Pillars:
The Anthropocene
Humanity is living through a unique era of Earth’s history—one of our own making—the Anthropocene. The rise of our industrial civilization has transformed the Earth system in profound ways. Serving as your guide to the present and future, Globaïa visualizes a world in change.
2050 & Beyond
In an age of deep injustice and uncertainties, our fears are metabolized as gloomy narratives about the future. All hope should not be lost however, on the contrary. Several global initiatives are setting pathways towards a sustainable world for all on a safe, stable and resilient planet. Globaïa is contributing to some of them.
Big History
Big History tells the story of the Cosmos, Earth, Life and Humanity as they evolve and unfold through space, time and emerging complexity. This is a universal and transcultural thinking framework with a significant potential to strengthen a sense of global citizenship. We have created numerous presentations to communicate various facets of this gigantic story.
The Ecosphere
What allows Earth to be the host of its cosmic jewel, the Biosphere? The concept of habitability is central and is defining our collective imprint on the Earth System as we are rendering it less inhabitable. Ecosphere Education is about enhancing ecoliteracy and geoliteracy among youth, general public and policymakers. This ought to be mainstream knowledge.
