Doughnut Economics and Just Transition Webinar

The cost of living crisis is squeezing people and making it harder to afford a home, pay the energy bills, buy food and ensure quality education for our kids. Meanwhile, climate chaos is already here, damaging homes and essential infrastructure. So how can we implement doughnut economics to urgently strengthen just transition policies on the ground?

Join a conversation with policymakers, academics and experts who are working at local and EU level to build a fair economy that centres human dignity and respects planetary boundaries.
