Dimensions of the Doughnut
An introduction to each of the 21 social and ecological dimensions of the Doughnut
Version 2.0 (September 2024)
🌍🌎🌏 ¡También disponibles en Español!
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!

Doughnut Economics is an inspirational text, and I am keen to be part of building it out to change our economy and society. I am the Sustainability lead at SUMS Consulting – we are a not-for-profit membership organisation providing consultancy services to the university sector, mostly in the UK. One aim is to make universities run sustainably and in harmony with their place. Universities are also at the centre of knowledge production and can make big contributions to the paradigm shift through their research, education and ability to bring people together. I hope to learn from this community and share ideas for change – both for my work and for living my own life.

I head up the Corporate Responsibility team at a global law firm, and am eager to connect with this community for 2 reasons: I'm interested in building a sustainability strategy for my firm that's rooted in the Doughnut Economics model, and I'm eager to build a community of sustainability-minded people in my local area.

My enchantment and fascination with the natural world began early with a love of animals, who I saw as ambassadors for other worlds. When I was 17, an extended hiking trip in the Wind Rivers of Wyoming sealed the deal. I teach lecture-based and experiential learning courses on sustainability, environmental ethics, ecological integrity, resilience theory, environmental psychology, and transformational learning at various Universities in the Twin Cities. I live in Mahtomedi with my three delightful children and two overly enthusiastic dogs. I consider my house one big art project, and I love to cook and entertain. Curious minds are always welcome at my table. Come say hello!
