HopePunk is a type of speculative fiction that stands in contrast to the imagined dystopias of tomorrow – and the real dystopian trends of today. HopePunk centers fighting for positive change, kindness as a radical act, and finding strength in the community to overcome challenges. The term was coined via a Tumblr post in 2017 by fantasy author Alexandra Rowland. It upends narratives of apathy, cynicism, and hopelessness by imagining worlds where collective rebellion and resistance lead to liberation.
The theme for the 2023 Summit is a call for agitation: What can we do now so that the future is far better than the present for disabled people?

Recently, we announced the IDGS Event Program including Keynote Speakers Liz Jackson and D’Arcee Charington Neal, a screening of the award-winning film “Dani’s Twins”, and many more exciting presentations!
