I am drawn to the Doughnut Economics Action Lab Community because it offers a practical and Planetary-centered approach to development that aligns closely with my vision for inclusive and regenerative societies. Coming from a background in History and Development practice, I have worked in TVET, livelihood, and disability inclusion projects in Bangladesh, where I have seen how economic growth often overlooks social equity and ecological balance. DEAL’s framework inspires me because it connects economic systems with human dignity, community wellbeing, and planetary boundaries. I want to learn from global practitioners, exchange ideas, and explore how Doughnut Economics can be adapted to contexts like Bangladesh. In the future, I hope to apply these ideas through my initiative, Development X, focusing on inclusive livelihoods and regenerative community development.
