Cidra, Puerto Rico, United States of America

I am here because I believe in justice for all. When I first read Doughnut Economics which I had no idea what I was getting into but I came out with a clear picture of what a just economy could be. Currently I am a lawyer from Puerto Rico that is in the equitable housing movement. I belive that if you value equality and community than your actions and the world that you want have to reflect those values. I am a hopeful person because I believe it is a necessary ingridient but a sufficient one for change and progress. I am result driven but value oriented I try to not lose sight of why I do what I do.

Delhi, India

Slowest Revolutionary. Just a novice in addressing the eco-paralysis which exists in our society. An altruist who is learning about the paradigm shift from neoliberalism to Doughnutism (Social Equitable Ecological Economy). I believe knowledge from the indigenous/tribal communities is a way to mitigate the climate crisis and plug policies which would make "clean environment" a human right, it could be a start. Belonging to the largest democracy in the world, it is imperative for India to look at new alternatives and to shift to a circular economy soon, for a happier society.

New York, United States of America

I was born in the middle east but have lived in the U.S. since I was a teenager. I've worked throughout the developing world on technology policy with telco operators, internet platform companies, and governments. I did a short stint at the World Economic Forum were learned how to distinguish between a "think-tank" and "do-tank." I left the WEF wanting to "do more and talk less," and co-founded a fintech company using blockchain to disrupt investment banking. I subsequently learned what happens when a company grows faster than its available capital. I've been doing freelance consulting for the past 18 months or so, mostly research and writing for the Economist Intelligence Unit.
