Union Saint-Gilloise and the Doughnut?
What if the sports sector were to transform?
Transformation starts where you have leverage: within your own organisation. This conviction was already strongly present at Union Saint-Gilloise, football club in Brussels, which took things a step further by sharing its sustainability commitments with its sponsors and suppliers, and by offering them a reflective workshop on Doughnut Economics, in collaboration with BeDonut.
Mobilising stakeholders means stepping out of one’s comfort zone, inspiring one another, fostering new collaborations and, last but not least, not feeling alone and strengthening collective motivation in the face of transition challenges.
Workshop organised with the support of Brussels Environment. A big thank you to Matilde Pagnier from Union for her commitment, and to all participants for the richness of the exchanges!
