Hello Doughnut!
The first set of Doughnut Economics foundational learning tools for schools and education. Welcome!
We at DEAL have been working for the past two years on developing the first set of a comprehensive series of resources for educators - teachers and learners, young and old - to help bring the foundational ideas, practices, and principles of Doughnut Economics into learning spaces across all school years.
We have designed the first set of resources, Preparing to teach and Hello Doughnut! (four ‘ready to go’ tools focusing on introducing the Doughnut concept). More sets are coming!
After an enriching iterative learning journey of sensing, listening, and practising with and from a broad range of friends in the Schools and Education space - teachers and learners of a diverse number of countries including Colombia, China, Denmark, Germany, Indonesia, Ireland, Mexico, Morocco, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Uganda, and United Kingdom - we are now ready to launch them around the world.
We trust that there is still much more that we can learn from how they will be used, adapted, and be useful or not in different contexts and spaces around the world. If you spot any issues or have suggestions for improving them, please reach out to us via Sharing back. Thank you in advance!

Hello, My name is Debbie I've been an Occupational Therapist for 25 years now & that helps me appreciate the complexities of our human systems of daily living, it also helps me to understand how our activities of daily living support & maintain these systems Three years ago I trained as the first Wayapa Wuurrk (Earth Connection) practitioner on our European soil Wayapa has helped me in so many ways, it's reduced my eco anxiety, increased muscle strength & range of movement, balance & co-ordination but mostly it's connected me with a community of like minded people, you can visit https://wayapacom?aff=Debbie for more information Currently I'm leading on our Lincoln Global Doughnut Day 2025 with a focus on firm foundations, key collaborations & co-creation opportunities to bring Doughnut Economics Alive in Lincoln now & for the future

From consumerism mercenary to change catalyst. After a decade building marketing strategies that maximized profits, I had an uncomfortable but necessary revelation: my skills were serving the wrong system. My transformation began when I saw myself for what I really was: a "consumerism mercenary." But I also discovered something powerful; the same tools I used to drive consumption could become amplifiers of systemic solutions. Why this transition mattersMillions of professionals are experiencing the same "awakening" I went through. We need bridges between the commercial world and social sector—translators who help scale innovations that truly matter. My north star: That my work generates community autonomy, not product dependency. What I bring to the social innovation ecosystem• Applied systems thinking: Translating complex ideas into narratives that mobilize communities • Regenerative strategic sommunication: 12+ years helping organizations articulate their transformative purpose • Collaborative leadership: Developing team autonomy, not hierarchical dependency • Transition facilitation: Expert at navigating undefined spaces and innovating without clear roadmaps. Does this transition resonate with you? Would you lead social innovation projects together? 📧 Let's connect: t.link/rodrigoponton [Communication + Strategy + Systems thinking]

Founder of Make It Good which is dedicated to accelerating regenerative futures. Most recently part of the Oxfordshire Doughnut Project Team. Funded by Oxfordshire County Council and hosted by Aspire, the project seeks to accelerate understanding of Doughnut Economics in application across three core work streams - developing a preliminary data portrait as a springboard for engagement, understanding how to move from impact assessment to doughnut-informed Decision Making Wheel, and to consider how to begin to apply these tools to strategic economic planning in Oxfordshire.

I am an engineer who is working to support a move to a sustainable future. Having transitioned my career from the energy sector, studied leading change and environmental issues I now provide consultancy, run workshops and publicly speak. I cover some of the various topics associated with our shift to a "new model" working within the planets boundaries while supporting all living systems to create a better thriving future. I am an advocate for individual and collective action, long term thinking and nature connection, as an engineer I am a problem solver - we are the people we have been waiting for LETS DO THIS! Also I am a People Planet Pint & Pastry Host.
