• “What to do with men?” is a partnership between Feminist Futures and One Day in 2050.

• This book is an invitation to women and non-binary speculative futurists and storytellers to imagine a matriarchal version of 2050. After everything that men have done over centuries against the planet, women, children, and themselves, what is, after all, their place in a feminist, egalitarian, and just society?

• Authors will be invited to participate in monthly workshops (from February to May) to explore futures methods and speculative storytelling techniques, and provide peer-to-peer feedback as they develop their worlds, characters, and stories.

• This edition is inspired by “The Emancipation”, a text written by Thays Prado for the 2050 Books publication. Read it here.

• Genre: Speculative fiction

  Length: Around 1,000 words

  Deadline for submitting the text: May 31, 2026.
