About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

The Alternative Economic and Monetary Systems (AEMS) Summer University invites to its public panel discussion:

The ongoing climate crisis showcases a need for re-evaluating how we organize our society. It’s becoming ever more evident that the strive towards endless economic growth is not feasible on a finite planet. The good news is that there are already many ideas on what a social-ecological transformation could or should look like to enable a good life within the planetary boundaries. But how do we put those into practice? Where can we initiate a transformation and what are the different leverages to achieve it?

The panel discussion offers the opportunity to discuss these questions.

Panelists:

Moderated by Michael Bauer-Leeb.
