Museum of Health Futures

This guide is designed to lead you on a journey through the Museum of Health Futures, where multiple health futures are envisioned and brought to life through a unique blend of storytelling and speculative objects (future artefacts).

Future Artefacts

Each future artefact is anchored in a specific year and accompanied by a provocative question designed to spark reflection on the challenges and opportunities that may shape our futures. Detailed descriptions provide insight into the artefact’s design, function, and role within possible futures. Alongside these artefacts, personalized narratives immerse you in the lives of imagined individuals living in these future scenarios, bringing the envisioned future to life and offering a unique perspective on how health might evolve in the years to come.

Past Artefacts

Paired with each future artefact is a past artefact, representing a significant milestone in public health history. These artefacts are presented with their title, year, theme, and a description of their historical significance, highlighting their impact and connection to the Weaving Health themes.

As you explore the exhibition, you’ll encounter these artefact pairs, which create a dialogue between past achievements and future possibilities. This structure encourages reflection on health progress and how today’s work can shape the futures we aspire to build.

By connecting the past and future in this way, the guide is meant to inspire you to imagine how different futures might unfold—and how you can help shape them.
