VOICE OF COMMONS

UNLESS

Fréquence : 1 épisode/5j. Total Éps: 5

Broadcasting from Venice – a city on the climate frontlines – Voice of Commons is a new podcast amplifying the voices of our Global Commons: Antarctica, the Ocean, the Atmosphere, and Outer Space. As we approach the 1.5°C threshold set by the Paris Agreement, destabilised Commons are triggering rising seas, mass displacement, and increasing ecological and geopolitical instability – yet they remain voiceless in global governance. They have no representation, no voice, and no vote in decisions shaping our collective future. Voice of Commons aims to change that.

Launched as a Special Project of La Biennale di Venezia and led by architect and activist Giulia Foscari, founder of UNLESS, Voice of Commons challenges existing governance models by building a transdisciplinary platform at the intersection of art, science, policy, and technology. Through conversations hosted by Giulia Foscari with global changemakers – from Sylvia Earle to Christiana Figueres, Johan Rockström, and Kumi Naidoo – the podcast fosters Global Commons literacy, sparks imagination for just and sustainable futures, and calls to action for intergenerational justice.

Part of a broader global advocacy initiative, the podcast is joined by the Speak-Up for the Commons campaign – inviting grassroots participation – and a Petition calling for the legal and political recognition of the Commons and the establishment of a Global Commons Assembly.

All are catalysed from the Voice of Commons’ Planetary Embassy in Venice, where each day representatives from Indigenous communities, nation-states, or stateless nations take the stage to lend their voices to the Commons – building, together, a planetary Constituency to ensure a safe and operating space on Planet Earth for All-kind.

Hosted by Giulia Foscari.

What if nature had legal rights? In this episode of Voice of Commons, host Giulia Foscari speaks with environmental lawyer Cormac Cullinan - founder of the Global Alliance for the Rights of Nature and the Wild Law Institute - about rethinking legal systems to recognize nature as a rights-bearing entity. From the courtroom to the cryosphere, we explore how the Rights of Nature movement is reshaping global environmental governance, and what justice could look like for the Global Commons -including Antarctica, the Ocean, the Atmosphere, and Outer Space.

In closing, we share a powerful reflection from ecologist and activist Carola Rackete - Member of the European Parliament and of the Antarctic Rights Alliance - recorded live at the launch of the Antarctica Declaration at the Voice of Commons Planetary Embassy during the Venice Biennale Vernissage.

Climate Justice

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

vendredi 9 mai 2025 • Durée 46:39

The climate crisis is a human rights crisis — and addressing it demands urgent, systemic change. South African activist Kumi Naidoo — President of the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty Initiative and former Secretary-General of Greenpeace International and Amnesty International — joins host Giulia Foscari for a galvanizing conversation on justice, activism, and the future of our Global Commons. Reflecting on decades of campaigning, from standing up to apartheid to defending Antarctica and the Ocean, Kumi calls for dismantling fossil fuel addiction, amplifying the voices of the global majority, and embracing the transformative power of artivism. As the Venice Biennale Vernissage draws to a close, we are reminded that art and architecture can — and must — be a catalyst for hope, resistance, and justice.

Kumi Naidoo is a human rights and environmental justice activist. He is President of the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty Initiative and Payne Distinguished Lecturer at Stanford University. He formerly served as Secretary-General of Amnesty International (2018–2020) and was the first person from the Global South to lead Greenpeace International (2009–2015).

THE OCEAN'S VOICE

A Call to Protect our Ocean Commons.

"Her Deepness" Sylvia Earle — legendary oceanographer, President of Mission Blue, Explorer-in-Residence at the National Geographic Society, and Voice of Commons Ambassador — joins host Giulia Foscari for a powerful conversation from the Venice Biennale Vernissage. Drawing on thousands of hours beneath the Ocean surface, Sylvia transports us into a vibrant interspecies world to which we all belong, confronting the threats of overfishing, deep-sea mining, and ocean acidification. Reflecting on ocean governance, the High Seas Treaty, and the Global Commons, she reminds us that, with unprecedented knowledge of Earth's interconnected systems, we have the best chance — and the urgent responsibility — to act. From advancing marine protected areas to fostering Hope Spots, Sylvia calls for bold action to safeguard the blue heart of our planet for future generations.

PLANETARY BOUNDARIES

Securing a Safe and Just Operating Space for the Global Commons.

In the inaugural episode of Voice of Commons, launched by UNLESS from the Planetary Embassy at the Venice Biennale, Earth system scientist and Voice of Commons Ambassador Johan Rockström joins host Giulia Foscari to explore the vital role of the Global Commons Antarctica, the Ocean, the Atmosphere, and Outer Space – in sustaining life on Earth.

Together, they make the case for rethinking stewardship and governance before it's too late – and reflect on what it will take to secure a just and safe operating space for All-kind. A powerful conversation with one of the leading voices shaping our understanding of Earth's resilience – and the consequences of pushing it too far.
