Sectors, Let’s Get Started: Online Launch Webinar (Past)
Join our online launch of ‘Sectors, Let’s Get Started’! Discover insights, engage with global initiatives, and ask Q's!
Please Note: This event has now finished and can no longer be joined.
Following cities, communities, and businesses, there is a growing interest in bringing the Doughnut to various sectors. From health and tourism to the built environment, energy, waste, fashion, and technology, numerous initiatives are emerging that seek to integrate the principles of Doughnut Economics into sector-specific practices.
Recognising this enthusiasm, DEAL has created the guide Sectors, Let’s Get Started, to empower those engaged in transforming sectors. The guide was informed by a mapping exercise of sectoral initiatives worldwide, which has revealed common patterns, challenges, and reasons why sectoral initiatives are using Doughnut Economics concepts and tools.
In the webinar, Ilektra Kouloumpi, who leads the work on Doughnut & Sectors for DEAL, together with sectoral initiatives from around the world will discuss key insights, and different approaches from the application of the Doughnut for sectoral transformation.

| Sustainability Transitions Specialist | Co-Founder of Mexico City's Doughnut Economic Coalition + Scaling Coordinator in CIMMYT-CGIAR After finishing my MSc in Environmental Sciences, Policy and Management in Lund University with a thesis to downscale the doughnut for Mexico City's water policies, I learned research was not enough to make a change. For this reason, I have co-founded the Tricolor Coalition (Mexico City's Doughnut Economic Coalition) to collaborate with other agents of change to promote sustainability transitions in Mexico City. We are now developing community, informative, and capacity building activities to support Mexico City's agents of change interested in promoting this transition. I am currently also working as a Scaling Coordinator in the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center. In my job, I continue to learn about systems thinking approaches, and about what types of food innovations could be scaled (why? and where?) to create more impact. Moreover, I also have experience in international and national public administrations, and I have specialized in the water-food-energy sectors and climate change challenges.

Founder of Make It Good which is dedicated to accelerating regenerative futures. Most recently part of the Oxfordshire Doughnut Project Team. Funded by Oxfordshire County Council and hosted by Aspire, the project seeks to accelerate understanding of Doughnut Economics in application across three core work streams - developing a preliminary data portrait as a springboard for engagement, understanding how to move from impact assessment to doughnut-informed Decision Making Wheel, and to consider how to begin to apply these tools to strategic economic planning in Oxfordshire.
