What do more than 5,000 children think about the future? And even though they can’t really talk about it with their parents, why do they share their thoughts on the subject with the spiritual guardian of two time-traveling cats, who visits them at school or at the library? A talk by the author of Jövőmenők / "Future-movers" on children’s vision of the future.

The talk anticipated the profound impact that social networks would have on communication, participation and public life. Long before these transformations became widely recognised, the talk explored how decentralized digital communities would reshape influence, storytelling and collective action in the twenty-first century.

NET-WORKS explored the growing influence of networks on communication, leadership and society. Long before concepts such as information bubbles and algorithm-driven public discourse became mainstream, the keynote examined how digital communities would reshape trust, influence and collective decision-making. It offers a forward-looking perspective on the opportunities and risks of living in an increasingly networked world.

Based on his bestselling children's book series, Jövőmenők / "Future Makers" examines how future thinking, creativity and a sense of agency can be developed from an early age. Reaching more than 5,000 children through interactive workshops, the project demonstrates a long-standing commitment to empowering the next generation with the mindset and skills needed to navigate an increasingly complex future. The success of the initiative led to the publication of a second volume, extending its reach and impact.
