In the wake of the three design positions in the biennial - the ancestor, the accelerator and the activist - the curators of It's About Time drafted a manifesto with the following encouragements:
· Act upon climate change as a short-term problem
· Root locally, resonate globally
· Seize the transformative moment
· Study systems: everything is connected
· Think radical, act pragmatic
· Create context for others to blossom
· Develop capacities rather than knowledge
· Connect to deep-time
· Share value not profit
· Scale up, scale out and scale deep
· Design for desirable futures
· Take time
