Cambridge, England, United Kingdom

I'm a member of CamDEAG, a community action group downscaling the doughnut in Cambridge England. I'm especially interested in discussing our plans to develop the 'Cambridge Doughnut' into an online, digital interactive. Would be curious to hear from others looking to do something similar. For members in low- and middle-income countries, we're looking to collaborate and share your stories as audio files in our digital doughnut, so Cambridge residents can better understand the global impact of our local economy. Always open to new forms of collaboration.

Brazil

I'm part of the Donut Brasil network, and together we are experiencing the tools and knowledge of the Doughnut Economics in many projects and in the Latin America and Brazil contexts. I describe myself as a XXI century economist, who adopts systemic and transdisciplinary thinking, and understands the world as a complex socio-ecological system.  My goal is to work with regenerative projects for the development of inclusive, intelligent, and sustainable cities and communities. I have been particularly interested in applying the Doughnut economy model for cities, business and organisations.  I have experience with projects planning and management, structuration and implementation of new governance models, and group's facilitation collaborative methods to co-create more effective and sustainable solutions for social problems.
