The opportunity to work with Professor Yuval Noah Harari and his NGO Sapienship, a social impact company that aims to focus global attention on issues of global importance, including the climate crisis, technological disruption and the prevalence of war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So what have I been doing with them for the past year? Largely, I&#8217;ve been working with my colleagues developing the <a href=\"https:\/\/lab.sapienship.co\/\" title=\"\">Sapienship Lab<\/a> which launches today. There&#8217;s a lot of content in there already and much more to come over the coming weeks and months. It even includes some audio dramas I wrote which I guess count as my first published science fiction in a while.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the content is factual, educational, and intended to act as a guide through the labyrinth that is our fast-moving now. A lot is aimed at middle schoolkids through to undergrads, but we hope that everyone can learn something from it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I miss teaching but I feel that in my new role I can still educate, albeit remotely, and contributing to the Lab is how I&#8217;m doing that now. I hope you&#8217;ll take a look at some of what we&#8217;ve prepared. It&#8217;s taken a lot of people a long time to put all this together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And perhaps you might share it too with anyone who might be interested, which hopefully will transpire to be everyone, because we strongly believe that we&#8217;re all in this together and only by talking and listening to everyone will we manage to improve our world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last January, I flew out of Cappadocia and left academia, which was a strange thing for me to do really, since I&#8217;d aspired to be an academic for decades before I finally achieved it.
