The Afterlife — New Visions, Views and Voices

Doctoral Researcher Klaudia Majcher and Joseph Waldstein launched an open and forward-looking blog – ‘The Afterlife’. This is a platform for people around the world to share their ideas on what they want to change: personally, and in society at large. On this platform, everyone can publish ideas and children can present their art works. 

The idea behind this is to bring people closer together, at least by sharing ideas. The creators of this blog want to take peoples’ minds off the current events, even if only for some minutes – by looking ahead. The blog accepts contributions in English and between approximately 150 and 300 words. The blog posts should present an opportunity for change in your daily life or in the world. Now or in the future – and triggered by Corona. 

'The Afterlife' is also a virtual art space for young people. The blog features a virtual Art Room for children, as many around the world are in lock-down right now. Klaudia and Joseph would love them to visualise their dreams and wishes for the future and send them a photo of their art work.

Please visit the blog 'The Afterlife' and if you see an opportunity for change now or after the crisis, share your thoughts.
