The book Reclaiming Hope: Navigate (un)certainty, imagine better futures, edited by Ivica Mitrović and Dora Vanette and published by the Centre for Creativity (Museum of Architecture and Design, Slovenia), brings together contributions from authors, researchers, and practitioners in the fields of design, architecture, art, and social sciences. It explores the role of imagination, solidarity, and collective action in shaping more just and sustainable futures.

Through essays and case studies, the book bridges theory and practice, offering reflections on speculative design, education, care infrastructures and participatory approaches. It highlights the power of collaboration, proximity, and care — values that were also central to the Reclaiming Hope symposium, from which the publication emerged.
