Doughnut Economics Advocates New Zealand (DEANZ) is an advocacy group for people who are concerned about the threat to the ecological balance presented by climate change and environmental degradation, and the threat to the social balance presented by the relentless pursuit of GDP growth. DEANZ members are committed to work towards a sustainable ecological and cultural future by putting into action the concept of Doughnut Economics. Our goal is to encourage attitude and behavioural change from a growth-led to a sustainability-led economy through effective communication and education.

I was trained as an architect, but after some existential crises I changed career to the arts, anyways, I am defintely enthusiastic to help flip the reality we found ourselves in, into a world that is on the other side of fascism, power and money...

I'm a researcher interested in supporting transitions to social justice and ecological regeneration. I work with community groups, iwi, businesses and city councils to document and learn from the transitional work they are already doing. I also frequently work with a team of people at the Community Economies Institute, writing, researching and imagining postcapitalist economies. My training is in development studies and geography.

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.
