The goal of Donut Wien (Doughnut Vienna) is to create a city that is able to meet the needs of its citizens within planetary boundaries, in a way that also supports the global shift to a socially-just and regenerative economic system.
Initially founded at a climate strike in 2023, we were a core organising partner of the Beyond Growth Austria Conference held in Vienna in May 2024.
In 2025 we officially formed an association and began working on a project to create a Doughnut Compass for the city, to accelerate policies and structures that can help more citizens, organisations and businesses take part in the transformation.
We work in German and English and are open to welcoming new members and collaborations. To find out more and connect with us, visit http://www.donut.wien/

I have always had an adversity to money, and talk about money. And I always thought the talk in newspapers etc about the economy was at the least weird, at the worst mean spirited. I realise that our world is completely evolving around, and built for, money and its workings, and that what we get taught about economy is a scheme we are meant to stay put in. The fact that there seems to be a movement now that does not get squashed or peters out (at least not immediately) that seeks to change exactly these things about money and the economy, makes e enthusiastic about it. I came to this because of the writings of Kate Raworth, Piketty, Stephanie Kelton, George Monbiot, Rutger Bregman, BIEN (Basic Income Earth Network/basicincome.org) Evonomics.com Georgeo Simonetti and Margrit Kennedy. We MUST change, and this change needs to be from the ground up. Economy is ground work.

I first came into contact with Doughnut Economics when I worked on my Bachelor thesis last year. Currently I am living in Vienna doing my Master in Global Change and Sustainabilty. I am curious about alternative economic pathways and want to engage myself more actively.

Urbanism and its social dimension have fascinated me ever since I had an 'aha' moment in an anthropology lecture during my sociology studies. I have recently submitted my thesis on urban planning and gender mainstreaming and would like to continue to work on these issues to possibly help ensure that our cities offer equal opportunities for all people in the future. I am always open to exchange and cooperation, because together we can achieve a lot. I look forward to making new contacts on this platform (I speak German, English and Spanish).
