About the event
The degrowth movement challenges us to rethink our relationship with resources, our role in society, and our responsibility to future generations. It calls for a shift toward simpler, more mindful living, valuing human connection, ecological harmony, and sustainable livelihoods.
Join us for a GoSimple Talk with Leonard Creutzburg , co-leader of the One Planet Lab at WWF Switzerland, as he challenges the status quo with a controversial idea: degrowth. A concept that goes against everything we've been taught about success, wealth, and progress.
What you will learn:
The core principles of degrowth and its global relevance.
Insights into how degrowth connects with climate action, economic systems, and social justice.
Real-world examples and strategies for implementing degrowth.
