The Forum for Caring Societies is a collaborative community of practice dedicated to promoting green care-centered economies and societies. We bring together researchers, activists, practitioners, funders, and policymakers committed to creating sustainable and equitable futures.

Funded by the Hot or Cool Institute and with the secretariat led by Pro(to)topia, the Forum works to build a multidisciplinary, evidence-based movement for systemic change.

Our community comprises both core working members and wider participants who engage in our activities. We host regular meetings for members, and on the last Wednesday of each month, we hold a public event that welcomes anyone interested in care, environmental stewardship, and transformative policy and practice.

The Forum’s mission is to cultivate an active, engaged community that collaborates, shares knowledge, and advances a collective vision of caring societies where humans and nature can thrive.
