Director of Stampwell Farm, Rector of Latimer Minster.   

Guyana

I was born in British Guiana, now Guyana, South America and have lived in and worked across 6 continents for over 40 years mostly looking to help countries build and sustain inclusive nation with equality of representation and wealth distribution for all citizens through strengthening political and fiscal governance systems. Despite being one of the least populated countries in the world, with still pristine forests and spectacular rivers, creeks, and waterfalls, this land of many waters, this Guyana, has the highest per capita rate of emigration in the world because of intractable tribal divisions inherited from colonial times.  I believe that we all suffer from a form of PTSD out of the colonial experience which does not allow us to find sufficient room for an inclusive national discussion especially post-independence. I returned to Guyana as I promised some elders a long time ago to lend my voice and experience to other likeminded Guyanese and Friends of Guyana who are committed to transforming Guyana to a sustainable and inclusive nation at peace with itself. Something that will be difficult to achieve with such an extreme rate of emigration. One with developmental plans that are focussed and formed through respectful broad-based participation across all of our peoples which, like those of our First Peoples, are in harmony with our environment.

Hi I am passionate in creating a more sustainable existence and am very much onboard with Doughnut Economics

Somerset

Aarhus, Denmark

India

I want to work on the root of the problems. I feel that economics is the root of the current problems of the world. I  am finding answers for how can we downscale the economy without impacting the common people so that if for environment, we want to reduce consumerism, then it should not impact the common people. I don't know if it is possible or not doughnut model but I want to understand the ideas behind doughnut 

Leeds, UK

I'm Nathan, originally from Huddersfield but I've lived in Leeds for 7 years. My background in Doughnut Economics came through my MSc in Sustainable Cities at the University of Leeds, during which I worked with the brilliant Otley 2030 climate action group on the local-social lens of their doughnut portrait. Since graduating I have started a role at Space2, an arts and social change charity in East Leeds. Here I am incorporating the principles of the doughnut into policy writing, and exploring the possibilities of incorporating the doughnut into participatory arts and community work.

Madison, WI, USA

I read Doughnut Economics last year and loved it. I would like to learn more about how I can better understand economic sustainability and begin speaking about it knowledgeably with others. I'd be very interested in shift gears professionally and trying to get involved with this field. My academic and professional career thus far have focused on genetics and genomics and I currently work in sales for a genomics technologies supplier. At the very least I'd like to consider ways I might influence the decisions of the organization I'm currently a part of.
