From October 14 to 16, 2026, the University of La Laguna will host the 2nd Transdisciplinary Conference on Biodiversity and the Environment, entitled "Decolonizing the Future: Local Responses to Global Challenges." The event will address the eco-social crisis from a critical perspective, focusing on the relationship between imagination, education, territory, and social transformation.

For three days, we will have researchers, teachers, artists, activists, and social agents from various disciplines participating in presentations, roundtables, participatory workshops, and artistic proposals. These will explore the futures we are imagining and those already being built in specific territories and communities, with a focus on experiences developed in the Canary Islands. From Spain, we will have the participation of Yayo Herrero and José Luis Fernández Casadevante “Kois,” and from Latin America, the Otros Futuros Collective.
