Dimensions of the Doughnut
An introduction to each of the 21 social and ecological dimensions of the Doughnut

Version 2.0 (September 2024)
ššš Ā”TambiĆ©n disponibles en EspaƱol!
Overview
This tool is a series of slides that show each of the 21 dimensions of the Doughnut. For each dimension, there is a short description, the data for the Global Doughnut (soon Doughnut 3.0!), and images of live initiatives/projects happening in practice all over the world.
These initiatives aim to capture the essence of the dimension and how we may move towards the Doughnut for each of them. There is still a lot of movement to be done in this respect, but each example shows a range of actions happening around the world to inspire and encourage people, particularly young people, who are so aware of the social and ecological challenges globally, and many of whom are so involved in leading action.
This tool can be used as a resource to support teaching in or outside education spaces, to present and/or expand ideas about the Doughnut, as well as a practical tool to use in workshop activities. A tool to use in everything that has to do with opening pathways towards distributive and regenerative futures!

I describe myself as a continuous learner who has a passion for designing strategies to solve complex problems businesswise. However, I cannot stick only to the business side of things as our present has demonstrated that life and business are not as apart as I thought a few years ago. They are completely linked, and one relies on the other on a process that is constantly trying to find a clever (not always wise) way to help us, humans, perdure. For me, DEAL is HOPE, and it's giving us, humans, a new chance to make things right (and wise).

I describe myself as a XXI century economist, who adopts systemic and transdisciplinary thinking, and understands the world as a complex socio-ecological system.Ā 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.Ā 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. 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.

How can businesses thrive while respecting people and planetary boundaries? Engineer by education, I started my career as a management consultant, helping companies with their growth strategies. About 10 years ago, I decided to focus on sustainable innovation, supporting companies in developing greener, circular solutions. However, I have come to realize that, to address the social and environmental crises we face, we need to go beyond incremental innovation and fix our economic and business systems. Today, I am exploring how businesses can rethink their purpose, legacy, goals, structure, and strategies to help drive the change we need. I am inspired by, amongst other, Doughnut Economics, Post-growth Economics, Purpose Economics, Sufficiency economics, Steward-ownership, Net-positive businesses.... And, I am happy to connect with anyone on these topics. Ā Ā Ā Ā
