GDD local-global conversation planning (1 of 2)
A match-making and planning session to find topics of common interest for local-global conversations during GDD 2025
This is one of two sessions. View the other here.
Global Donut Days (GDD) 2025 will take place between 14 and 17 October - more info here. Sign-up to organise here - and during this time, you can put on events locally and globally about anything to do with Doughnut Economics in practice.
For GDD 2025, we have co-designed how we, as a global community might like to connect, and we've given the idea the name 'local-global community conversations' (working title).
The idea is that you bring your local community together for a conversation on a topic that's important to you, then you connect with other communities around the world doing the same thing (on the same topic) for a global conversation. You then go back to your local community conversation afterwards, to reflect and deepen the local conversation.
The first step in bringing the 'local-global community conversations' to life is to share the topics that are of most interest to your local community, that you might want to have a global conversation about, with other communities around the world. Then we can do some match-making to see who else wants to have a global conversation on that topic during GDD.
So this is a match-making and planning session for us to find topics of common interest!
If you would like to come to this session, register via the zoom link above, and then visit this Miro board to share the topics of interest to your community, and which other topics (proposed by others) your community would like to be a part of.
If you have any access needs or any questions about this session, please contact rob@doughnuteconomics.org.

My interest in Doughnut Economics began during my undergraduate studies, alongside a general interest in systems thinking. I studied Politics & Social and Economic Policy for my undergraduate degree and will be undertaking an MSc in Planetary Health beginning September 2025. I am a former member of the Scottish Youth Parliament, current member of the British Ecological Society and I previously participated in the Young Leaders Development Programme through the Scottish Government's Climate 50 scheme in 2021, aimed at bringing young climate leaders together and training them to become active climate advocates. I now work across Impact analysis and development on a restoration project in the Scottish highlands.
